Nicolas Cage, Neil Patrick Harris, Pedro Pascal, Ike Barinholtz, and Tiffany Haddish in The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent (2022)

Goofs

The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent

Edit

Continuity

During the conversation between Nick Cage and Olivia after dropping off his daughter, there are gifts that appear and disappear on the dining room table.
Vivian's hair changes length from scene to scene.
When Javi and Nick are at the house before they go to the clip, it is raining, and the ground is wet. When they are in the land rover on their way to the cliffs, it is sunny and dry.

Factual errors

In the movie, all the plates of the Spanish cars have four letters. In real Spain, plates of the cars only have three letters.
After Pedro Pascal and Nicolas Cage jump off a cliff into the water, they crawl onto a nearby rock and smoke a joint that would have been ruined in the water, had they had it on them previously.
The car chase during the finale was shot in Budapest. The buildings were generally fairly generic, but in one shot you see the Buda Castle in the background.
Music starts playing after Nick Cage arrives in Spain, at the pool. The subtitles read: "Latin music plays". Someone asks: "are Americans actually THAT uneducated?" The characters are supposed to be in Spain, continent Europe. Race of peoples: Whites. Ethnicity: Spaniards.

There is no "Latin" anything in Spain. There are Spaniards who listen to Spanish music. Spaniards are the original Spanish-speakers, and the only reason why Aztecs, Mayans and other Incas speak their European language: because Spaniards were the White European conquistadors of the Americas located south of the USA border. And not the other way around.

This error is the equivalent of going to England, having The Beatles (or other English music) play and typing: "Native American (Navajo) music plays".

Incorrectly regarded as goofs

Revealing mistakes

Javi loads the shotgun with an empty shell.
During the final car chase, Carlos overtakes a black car with the license plate 124 SIGF. A couple of cuts later, Cage almost crashes head-on into a silver car with the same plate.
When Nick and Javi have exchanged the first shoe in the car, it is shown in short close ups that both wear the shoe of the other on their right foot. When they exchange the second shoe, Nick is giving Javi his right sneaker, even though, as shown before, Javi is already wearing that one.
It is obvious in the previous scene that Pascal and Cage do not have the same foot size and yet when they exchange their shoes in the jeep, both pairs fit perfectly.
When Nick and Javi get to the stone wall, bushes on either side block their view of the continuation/ends of the wall. But when Javi comes around the end, there are no bushes that would have hidden the fact that they could just go around rather than over. (For that matter, Nick should have seen this from the top of the wall)

Crew or equipment visible

During the big car chase, a pickup is hit by a truck and flips. The compressed air cylinder system used to flip the car is visible.

Plot holes

Character error

Twice Cage mispronounces "medulla oblongata." He pronounces it like "med-you-la." It should be pronounced "meh-DOO-luh."
