True Lies (1994)
Plot summary
Directed by: James Cameron
Starring: Arnold Schwarzenegger, Art Malik, Bill Paxton, Eliza Dushku, Jamie Lee Curtis, Tia Carrere, Tom Arnold
Harry Renquist is a boring computer salesman who does nothing all day. That's what his wife,Helen,thinks. What she doesn't know is her husband is really an international spy.
Factual error: There are a lot of comments about the Harrier (technically speaking it is an AV-8B, a slightly different aircraft) flown by Arnold Schwarzenegger, but everyone's missed the obvious one. The terrorist with the AK47 is unaware of the fact that a Harrier is hovering just outside the window until he slowly turns and see it there. He does a double take when he sees the Harrier just five metres away! A Harrier is an incredibly loud aircraft; you can hear them from three kilometers away. At that range the floor would shake with the noise and he would have been in no doubt whatever that he had been under attack for some time.
Trivia: In the scene when Arnold has rescued Jamie Lee Curtis from the limo and she is flying over the ocean from Arnold's hand, Curtis is actually the one doing that stunt.
