The Marine (2006)

Corrected entry: As Rome is walking forward and shooting at the police car, the camera switches to an overhead view at Rome and you see the casings being ejected upward into the air and then falling down. This would not be possible, as pistols eject spent casings up and to the right over the user's shoulder.

Correction: When firing semi-automatic pistols, I've had shell casings fly to the left, slightly forward and even had one hit me square between the eyes! Also certain pistols such as the Glock are designed to be ambidextrous and can throw shells straight up.

Factual error: The movie is supposed to be set in South Carolina and shows license plates on the front of cars. But cars in South Carolina don't have license plates on the front.
