David Harbour in Violent Night (2022)

Goofs

Violent Night

Edit

Continuity

Shortly after the dad, Jason, has his finger broken in the nutcracker his hands appear to be fine for the remainder of the film.
When Linda is being held hostage by Scrooge, her necklace is hanging on the back of her shirt for all shots from behind her and on the front of her shirt for all shots from in front of her.
As Candy Cane is about to kill one of the security guards in the mansion, she is standing above him with her feet at each side of the man's head. The next frame she is standing with her feet by his hips.
After Santa picks up the hammer, his hair switches from tied back, to loose around his face, to tied back again as the scene cuts between him and Trudy.

Factual errors

The car pictured in the opening scene is not a UK taxi cab. It is a Mobility Venture MV-1. These cars are not found in the UK.
Hollywood myth: a candle's light is not hot enough to properly disinfect any piece of metal but will rather deposit some soot on it.
The opening takes place in Bristol, but neither the mall Santa or Bartender speak with Bristol accents.
The eye of the makeshift needle is way too large to go through the skin, making the stitching absolutely impossible to achieve.
The military style team that arrives on their snowmobiles are military and when the teams are sent out to find Santa, are alpha team and beta team. In actuality the second team would be Bravo and not beta.

Errors in geography

Opening scenes claims to be in Bristol, England. When the landlady of the pub goes up onto the roof, the HSBC tower and other features of the London skyline are clearly visible behind her.

Plot holes

It is said that the family's residence is one of the most secure in the country despite only having one security guard at the gate, no electrified or high walls, too small a panic room, a front door that does not lock automatically, etc.
No bad guy in the living room finds it suspicious that a child would have a conversation by herself on a talkie that emits beeps when letting go of the PTT button and secure it.
Scrooge should have spotted Santa easily when he was upstairs and the bad guy enters the foyer as he was right in his vision field.
A sniper would have done much better shooting Santa off the roof with a sniper rifle rather than spray bullets at random with a machine gun.

Character error

The bodyguard should have shot Scrooge or at least ask him to lay flat on the floor when he exits the panic room instead of trying to single-hand him.
The highly trained soldiers lose their cool and don't use their all-purpose knife to cut the rope that is dragging them to their certain death.
Tinsel (Phong Giang) wastes precious seconds switching magazines despite having more than enough ammunition in his machine gun to blow Santa's head off.
Santa takes the time to stitch a superficial wound with makeshift fragile thread and then cover it with a thin piece of paper when he should have packed and/or pressure dressed it: much more effective, fast, and almost pain free.
