Trivia: Eggsy needs the code for the prison door that holds Princess Tilde. The code given is "2625." This spells out the word "anal" on a telephone keypad.

Continuity mistake: When Eggsy and Harry are walking toward the Kingsman tailors just before he gets introduced to the new weapons, there is a long shot of them walking down the street and two silver cars are coming down the street behind them. In the next shot the two silver cars that should still be in the background have disappeared. Also, as they approach the Lexus parked in front of the Tailor's, and there is no car beside them, in a second perspective, there is suddenly a black vehicle parked behind the Lexus.

Paddington (2014)

Continuity mistake: Just before the wallet thief smashes up the green VW Golf, there is a shot where you can see that the hubcap is missing from the passenger side front wheel. In a later shot however when it shows the VW Golf has come to a rest, the hubcap is now back on.

Universal Soldier (1992)

Factual error: The prison bus manages to utterly defy physics. Scott throws a grenade which detonates by the rear left wheel. However, the bus then rolls over toward where the explosion occurred, not away as it should have done.

Revealing mistake: At the end of the movie, the Turtles accidentally destroy Vernon's new car. If you look closely at one of the last shots of the movie where you can see the car now upside down, you can see the car doesn't have an engine, presumably to make it easier to flip.

The Pacifier (2005)

Factual error: When the Navy Seals land on the beach, Shane then gives a briefing on their target to capture and what to do. This is nonsense. A briefing would happen before they even left to do the mission, not as they started it in enemy territory. Being Navy Seals, they have a degree of intelligence, certainly enough that they wouldn't need a quick reminder as they start the mission.

Trivia: There are two scenes after the movie finishes. The first one is of a young Groot dancing, with Drax trying to catch him out. The second scene comes right at the very end - Howard the Duck makes a cameo appearance with The Collector. Howard can also be seen faintly in the background of the scene with The Collector during the movie.

On Deadly Ground (1994)

Factual error: When the two bad guys shoot at the elevator, they set off the claymore mine, and a huge flame and explosion kills them. A claymore is explosives and ball bearings, they don't create big fuel type flames, just a big focused explosion and shredding of anything in front of it.

On Deadly Ground (1994)

Continuity mistake: Michael Caine gets the rundown from the mercenaries that are to kill Steven Seagal, the lead mercenary takes Caine to one side and asks how he wants him delivered. The camera shot changes to a side view of Caine, and he turns his head full to the right and talks to the camera as if its the lead mercenary's viewpoint. The problem with this shot is the mercenary is stood in front of Caine, when Caine turns his head full to the right as per the next camera shot, it means in actuality, he's turned his head away from the mercenary completely and is talking to empty space.

Plot hole: Luke states that the reason for hiding Zeus' lightning bolt in Percy's shield is so that he can get the bolt to Hades, and thus start a war that will wipe out the Gods of Olympus. However, this simply cannot work. The whole plot of the movie rests on Percy accidentally dropping the shield, which Percy did innocently and not by any kind of design or planning. Had he not dropped the shield, Percy and the others would have been taken by the souls, Hades would never have discovered the lightning bolt, and the plot of the movie unravels from there.
