Captive State (2019)

Goofs

Captive State

Edit

Factual errors

Late in the film, Mulligan hands Gabriel a SIM card from an old cell-phone. Whilst Mulligan is preparing to go down the shaft, Gabriel puts the card into an SD card reader slot, and views videos of his mother's baby shower. A SIM card is not an SD card.
When dialing via analog phone line, as shown in the movie, you dial a phone number, not an IP.
The IP-Address, they try to connect to via good old phone line, is wrong. IPv4 uses four decimal notations separated with a dot, which cannot exceed the number 255.

Incorrectly regarded as goofs

The bomb is supposed to be invisible so no one will see it right out in the open, but frequently reflects light in a very obvious manner.

However this is clearly a stylistic choice on part of the filmmakers to show the audience that there is in fact a bomb present. It can be assumed that in the reality of the movie it is indeed undetectable.

Revealing mistakes

Security camera footage of Gabriel's interrogation indicates the events of the film are happening in July, but the costumes and scenery throughout the film clearly indicate the story is taking place during winter.

Errors in geography

Before the end title starts, there were some video clippings were playing to show the world wide revolt. Just after "Paris" it showed "Karachi" which is supposed to be in Pakistan. But clippings was of "Dhaka" and Bangladesh flags were waved by the people in the scene. Moreover, this was not a video of a protest at all. Rather it was a video of a pilgrimage for a religious gathering called 'Bishwa Iztema" held every year in January in Dhaka.
