‘I’m not a gun expert by any sense, but even I can tell you that a pistol should not be able to fire forever before reloading. Also, silencers don’t make guns sound damn near quiet. Silencers only suppress the noise a bit, but you can still hear it from distance relatively.’

‘The movie Rambo, when Rambo shoots a light antitank weapon (law), from the helicopter he was flying! A law has a 50 meter back blast, it would have blown himself and the helicopter up! I was in the army when I saw it, so we were trained with them!’

‘I’m a chemist… so pretty much every time a lab is shown where a sample is added to a machine and in a few minutes they’ll know everything about it and where it came from. Life isn’t that easy. Or fast.’

‘Chase scene through a busy restaurant/hotel kitchen and the chefs always do nothing. Many chefs are ex military and hard as nails. People who don’t belong there start running through that kitchen and you bet they will be challenged by the biggest, meanest-looking, tattooed chefs with armfuls of sharp knives swearing at them in several languages.’
