Legacy Peak (2022)

Revealing mistake: In the underwater view of the fish, the ice hole is almost perfectly round and the ice appears to be quite thin - nowhere near the several inches Jason and Ben have to chip away to reach water. (00:33:55)

Mafia Mamma (2023)

Revealing mistake: The way the pallbearers are effortlessly holding/carrying the casket (cupped palms underneath, sometimes not even touching, or just tips of fingers) is not possible. (00:15:27 - 00:15:55)

Champions (2023)

Revealing mistake: The position of the lamp (upright or tilted) to the left of the screen varies, and the way the light is cast on the wall above and below the lampshade is not realistic. For example, when the upper part of the lampshade is angled away from the headboard, the light projects below the lampshade shorter toward the left of the screen, not elongated. (00:01:00 - 00:03:00)

Ragamuffin (2014)

Revealing mistake: When the camera pans across John's family sitting on a pew, there is a few to several inches between each body. The almost-still frame closeup view from John's end shows the bodies cramming/overlapping and the first four are blurring. (00:11:03)

KeyZOid

Revealing mistake: In the opening scene, Johnny and Hickey sit in the front seat of a car. Views out the side windows blur, there is a gray background behind Johnny instead of the rear window, and when Hickey holds the cross toward the windshield, the "outside" is all grayish-white. At one point, there is light on Johnny's right forehead, cutting diagonally downward (too linear to be the sun), and another time, there is light behind Hickey on his headrest. (00:00:31 - 00:03:30)

KeyZOid

Revealing mistake: Eden's (or her stunt double's) dismount from the horse looks real, but her jumps off the platform to the ground are so soft with uneven foot landings that she has to be hoisted down. (00:11:11)

Dead Heat (2002)

1st Aug 2023

Mortal Thoughts (1991)

Revealing mistake: When Joyce and Cynthia are standing at the rear of the van, a carload of young men pulls up behind them. The men appear to take several steps before reaching them, so the car is not parked very close behind the van. When one of the men gets back into the front passenger seat, his car door is so close it looks more like it is the passenger door on the van, not the car. (00:34:14 - 00:34:35)

10 Minutes Gone (2019)

Revealing mistake: Obvious use of green screen for buildings across the street. On and off, the background fades, and buildings appear higher or lower depending on the camera's angle. At one point, the angle of walls behind Rex (Bruce Willis) is at a downward angle, and his head is almost touching the ceiling. (00:06:10 - 00:07:25)

Transfusion (2023)

Revealing mistake: Neither driver, Justine, nor passenger, Billy, were visible in the car when it got spun around by the Jeep. Even if both got bent over from the impact, the upper parts of their bodies should have been visible as they were both erect in their seats when the man opened the door to check on them. Also, the car doors were so smashed in that the man should not have been able to open the driver's door (at least not without some force or "Jaws of Life"). (00:19:25 - 00:19:57)

On the Line (2022)

Revealing mistake: Obvious use of a "green screen" when Elvis and Dylan are sitting on the steps in the stairwell. The five distinct steps that could be seen behind them become a gray wall and the blue handrail posts to the right of the screen become oddly grouped, appearing to be parallel to the right side of Elvis' shoulder/back. (01:09:00 - 01:09:25)

Unhuman (2022)

Revealing mistake: A white truck could be seen in Tamra's rear window, following her car at varying distances. After Tamra hit Randall on his bike, the white truck was still there but gone when the camera returned to a front view of Tamra. Use of a green screen - the truck could not have gone past the accident or "disappeared." (00:03:35 - 00:04:10)

KeyZOid

Revealing mistake: During the (second) bank robbery, the ceiling was frequently unusually close to the top of the robbers' heads (inadequate clearance), indicative of a poorly positioned green screen (or CGI). (00:16:35 - 00:17:00)

The Whale (2022)

Revealing mistake: There are noticeable differences in the appearance/condition of the lattice panels on the deck (overlapping; whether there are missing/broken slats and, if so, their locations), but pinpointing most of the differences would require pausing. When Thomas was seated in front of the panel adjacent to the door, sometimes there were broken/missing slats but other times they were intact. Most revealing was the absence of the lattice panel opposite the front door when Liz was standing near Thomas. (00:42:17 - 00:49:42)

KeyZOid

Revealing mistake: Addison is driving straight, but cars behind him are shown going around a curve. (Use of a green screen). (00:55:50)

Obsessions (2022)

Revealing mistake: When Danny follows Maria outside, he is in front of a well-lighted wide patio door with side windows and there are numerous decorative lights to his right. Thereafter, close-up views of him talking show only some small red lights to his right; the rest of the screen is black. Wide views continue showing the lit entryway behind him. (00:08:44)

KeyZOid

Revealing mistake: The candles on the long dinner table are numerous and clustered, but linear in front views of people seated at the table. Based on how the candles are disorderly arranged, it would not be possible to show a couple or few candles spaced apart in front of one person. (00:05:35)

Mindcage (2022)

Revealing mistake: The cell bars appear to be about 4" apart, but are much wider to accommodate the width of The Artist's face/head when there's a close-up of him next to the bars. (01:13:50 - 01:15:09)

Good People (2014)

Revealing mistake: When Tom and Anna were jogging on a dirt path, the woman going in the opposite direction who passes them on the right would be walking straight into the kids (and woman) who were running past them on the left - but the woman on the right disappeared behind Tom's back where the collision would have occurred if she were really there. [Use of a green screen]. (00:29:25)
