Unrealistic things in movies that annoy you

And repeatedly racking the action.
And a cop pulling his duty weapon, and double checking to see if he has a round chambered.

Fire scenes where the firefighting crew enters a building, sees lots of fire…and no smoke.
 
Almost everything ever dealing with sound and recording is off, at best, and more often, wrong. An exception is the Dylan movie.

Another one that drives me nuts is how quickly people get around big cities. It's even worse wh
 
That it appears that nobody can make a good movie these days. Success/ failure hinges on the quality/ quantity of the CGI and or special effects and explosions you can squeeze into 2hrs.

Where is the dialogue, character interaction, plot and the 'OMG I didn't see that coming?

Do we have AI movies in a few years?
 
Hand to hand fight scenes. Even if you win, you ain't really walking away from that. Ever been in a fight? It hurts. A lot. It wears you out. Adrenaline high and low is worse than coming off a coke addiction. Last fight I was in it started 1 on 1, quickly morphed into 7 on 1. I was stabbed pretty quickly. Then shot. So yeah, it sucks.

I love me some CGI. Reality sucks for most of us. That said, there needs to be a solid plot and good dialogue.

I get it. But we want the hero to win, more often than not. So they can dodge bullets and kick ass. Even if it's not realistic. This is entertainment, not reality. That said, I love Val Kilmer's performance in Willow. The Princess Bride is in my personal collection.

... TIME TRAVEL.

Tell me you didn't like the Back To The Future series.
 
This reminds me of the bomb from Stargate-SG1 episode Failsafe. There were 5 wires and all yellow. Apprently it was a poorly designed bomb.


He'll yes. The couple have just had great sex and lying in bed, particularly the woman with some clothing still on.

Then she gets up and a wrap or gown is always within arms reach. I have never had to cross the room naked to pick something up.

Then be best bit, her hair is perfect...
Right. I forgot about the perfect hair part🤣🤣🤣
 
So much to complain about, but I get especially peeved when characters are assigned to some government agency that has nothing to do with them. I.e., I've recently watched a couple movies where agents from the NSA (National Security Agency) are shooting people, arresting people, stalking people, whatever. The NSA, however, doesn't do that kind of field work; they're essentially a bunch of eavesdroppers and computer nerds who only leave the office for lunch or to go home.

And then there are all the CSI shows (OK, on TV, not the movies). Crime scene investigators are basically lab rats. They don't chase bad guys or make arrests. That's what the detectives do.
 
Car chase? Shoot at the damn radiator! They will lose speed or visibility pretty soon.
 
Bar fight? Don't swing at them with a cue stick, throw the damn balls at their head!
 
Sharknado 1,2,3,4 .... the most idiotic thing a human created...Testimony to human stupidity who watch this crap.
 
Shooting scenes where there are thousands of rounds fired by automatic weapons and Arnold doesn't get shot
