46 Bad Movie Details Viewers Spotted In Their Favorite Films
Not every film can be a cinematic masterpiece. And that’s perfectly fine! Sometimes I’m in the mood to watch a beautiful tear-jerker like Titanic. And other days, I just want to turn off my brain and giggle while watching The Master of Disguise (despite its 1% rating on Rotten Tomatoes).
But if you’re a cinephile, you might find it difficult to watch a movie or TV show without putting on your critic cap. You may immediately notice continuity errors, plot holes and unrealistic actions. And if that’s the case, you’re probably going to love this list. We took a trip to the [Bad] Movie Details subreddit, where audiences call out the most ridiculous aspects of films they’ve seen. From strange costume choices to questionable writing, enjoy scrolling through these details that viewers just couldn’t look past!
