Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery

Factual error: A major plot point revolves around the fact that the police and medical staff can't reach the island because the "Pisceshite" dock is non-buoyant and they need to wait for the low tide. While we do not know exactly where the fictional island is, other than the fact that it's 2 hours off the coast of Greece and Blanc mentions (correcting Miles Bron) that it's in the Aegean sea and not the Ionian sea, it's fair to say that the tides in that area of the Mediterranean are negligible, not reaching even a meter in very selected spots, and averaging at mere centimeters. It's nothing that would impede navigation and police or medical team to arrive. (01:02:30)

Factual error: Birdie tries to use the tune recognizing app Shazam speaking to the wrong device. When she does that, the TV in the background plays footage from CNN, with the coronavirus epidemic, featuring Dr. Fauci. However, in that particular part of the scene they also show a map of the US that displays the states with no mask mandate. The chart can't be a May 13, 2020 one (supposed date of the scene), since it shows the situation at the end of the year. Several states in white like Washington, Nevada, Oregon adopted it only in the summer. (00:08:20)

Audio problem: Blanc and Lionel are talking about Andi on the ship headed to the island. "In one legal move, he cut her out completely", Lionel says, but the second half of the phrase his chin (as you can tell by his conspicuous beard) is not moving. (00:18:45)

Helen Brand: Your fuel of the future just barbecued the world's most famous painting, you dumbass. Congratulations on the public launch of Klear, and the end of Miles Bron. You're ruined. And you did get your wish - to forever be remembered in the same breath as the Mona Lisa.
