The Equalizer 2 picture

Revealing mistake: The final scene is filmed in Brant Rock MA, and the weather is blatantly CGI. If you notice almost everyone is bone dry in a supposed driving rain storm. Look especially at the character perched on top of the submarine tower. For contrast note the "pizza delivery" scene where it is raining heavily and everyone involved is soaking wet.

Mission: Impossible - Fallout picture Mission: Impossible - Fallout mistake picture

Revealing mistake: Fight in the toilet of the Paris nightclub: the presumed Lark rips out the sink's drain and begins assaulting Tom Cruise with it; Walker intervenes holding him, but the nimble Asian does a flip and brutally tosses him to the ground. As Henry Cavill is bent over before being snapped to the floor, on his back, you can definitely see a protective pad through the jacket. (00:31:52)

Reprisal picture

Revealing mistake: During the police chase with Gabriel on his motorcycle, he stops and turns to start shooting at one of the cops. By appearances, Gabriel is using a standard Glock which had a magazine capacity of 15 rounds. He has no extensions on it at all with the handle and magazine visible. Yet he proceeds to fire the gun 33-35 times at the cop car without reloading and in continuous fire. (00:57:55)

Day of the Dead: Bloodline picture

Revealing mistake: Baca is using a pistol to shoot the zombies towards the end and still has this same pistol at the end. When he's on the ground about to shoot himself to stop from turning, it shows a close up of his pistol which reveals it's a 6mm BB gun. (01:20:15)

Avengers: Infinity War picture Avengers: Infinity War mistake picture

Revealing mistake: Just after Proxima Midnight and Corvus Glaive land in the train station, there is a wide shot where they begin approaching Wanda and Vision. In the wide shot, their shadows do not appear to match up with each other, despite being under the same lighting. Proxima Midnight's shadow is positioned in front of her and is quite heavy, but Corvus Glaive's shadow is positioned more to his left and is much lighter than Proxima's. (00:40:20)

Den of Thieves picture

Revealing mistake: During the big shootout on the freeway at the end of the movie, there is a camera pan over all the cars stopped in traffic. There are no people in any of the cars. The shot is so high that you would still be able to see people crouched down if that was the case. (01:56:47)

Skyscraper picture

Revealing mistake: As Will and Ben are wrestling for the gun, it goes off, shooting Ben in the chest. When you hear the shot you can see the gun is lying on Ben's chest with him holding it, and it's pointed pretty much at an exact 90° to his side. It would have barely grazed him at best and would have left a long scratch/cut at that angle. Yet as they get up the shot is perfectly centered on his chest and round as if it was a direct shot. (00:24:55)

Bohemian Rhapsody picture

Revealing mistake: Right before the scene where Freddie meets with the band to try and make amends, he's arguing with that one man in the rain. After he walks away and it's raining only on him and on the pavement. If you look to the right there is no rain coming down on the grass or trees or anything else.

Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again picture

Revealing mistake: After young Donna and Bill are swimming back to the boat after what is meant to be a beautiful ocean swim, Donna climbs up into the boat. In the high shot we can see a line or seam in the floor under the water that gives away it's being shot in a pool.

The Happy Prince picture

Revealing mistake: The paddle steamer on which Wilde crosses the Channel has her name "Waverley" visible on the bow. The Waverley, the world's last seagoing paddle steamer, was launched in 1946, 46 years after Wilde's death. Replacing the name with the name of a real paddle steamer of the era would probably have been a good idea.

The Predator picture

Revealing mistake: The covering of snow was not real snow. When the trick-or-treaters are first seen, there are images of footprints (shoeprints) in the snow, but the trick-or-treaters walking over the "snow" do not leave any footprints. (00:44:38)

Revealing mistake: Eve says they need to make sure nobody gets shot, so she picks up Franklin's pistol and takes out the magazine to store them separately. However in this shot the magazine is completely empty with no bullets anyway. (00:53:40)

Gotti picture

Revealing mistake: When Paul Castellano is shot, there is a blood spurt shown from where the bullet hits, but the position of the gunman who fires at him doesn't match the direction the blood spurts. The gunman is across the street facing Castellano at an angle, but the blood spurt shown could only be achieved if the two were facing each other directly. (00:56:10)

Dark Was the Night picture

Revealing mistake: Margaret's car and the way it was situated relative to already-parked cars in the courthouse lot was awkward. When she was sitting in the car, the driver's side-view mirror was angled outward yet gave a clear reflection of her face. The car in the row behind her was too close and at an angle, which would have likely blocked her approach. The car to her left was angled like a "V" to her car. These suggest/ indicate a green screen was used. Margaret's car appeared to be parked in the through lane. (00:53:58 - 00:56:52)
