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.
The Marine (2006)
1 corrected entry
Directed by: John Bonito
Starring: Robert Patrick, John Cena, Kelly Carlson, Anthony Ray Parker
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.
More quotes from The Marine
Trivia: During the scene when John is chasing down Rome and his crew just after they have kidnapped his wife, one of Rome's crew is shooting at John and crew says "He's like the Terminator" and the camera shows a shot of Rome lifting an eyebrow in the rear view mirrow. This is a reference to the massive hit Terminator 2 where Rome (Robert Patrick) plays the evil Terminator who just keeps on coming. (00:37:35)
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.
