Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me (1999)

Trivia: Pierce Brosnan wanted a cameo in this film and wanted to have Mike Meyers cameo in The World is Not Enough, but the two couldn't make their shooting schedules match for it. (From an interview with Brosnan in Maxim magazine.).

Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me (1999)

Other mistake: When Frau shoots the gun out of Austin's hand, she fires from behind his back. She would not be able to do this unless she shot through him. She also would not be able to see his gun from behind him as he was holding it at waist level. One of those new boomerang bullets?

Suggested correction: She's not standing behind his back. She's at his one o'clock from the viewer's perspective, and has a clear view of the gun. He's also not holding the gun at waist level. He has it raised at his chest level because he's getting ready to shoot Dr. Evil.
