Video

Continuity mistake: In the opening scene, as the first Nautilus attack takes place, there is a moment, where the camera shows the Nautilus from the top and there is green light coming out of the back, as it was made out of glass. But the top of the Nautilus is made from iron.

Factual error: When they first arrive on the Nautilus, they look out the large porthole and see the crew on the bottom of the ocean burying one of the crew, but the ocean would be much deeper than that, since the Nautilus is at the surface.

Suggested correction: The depth of the ocean varies. There are shallow areas even in mid-ocean, especially near islands or other land masses.

Noman

Captain Nemo: Think of it. On the surface there is hunger and fear. Men still exercise unjust laws. They fight, tear one another to pieces. A mere few feet beneath the waves their reign ceases, their evil drowns. Here on the ocean floor is the only independence. Here I am free! Imagine what would happen if they controlled machines such as this submarine boat. Far better that they think there's a monster and hunt me with harpoons.
