When someone is shot and gets blown backwards like they got hit with a freakin cannonball.

I used to love the big motivating pre-battle speech, but now it's certainly gotten cliche and predictable.

One man beating the asses of an entire group of men is one of the dumbest things to occur in movies. Each man of the group will just stand around, watch and wait for his own turn to get beat down instead of double- and triple-teaming the one man with other members in his group. Even groups of 10, 20, etc. will all just stand around and wait his turn to get his arse whipped.

If it was always 7 year old's doing this, it'd be spot on...

Precocious children

Bad-arse females kicking men's asses in a fistfight

Government agencies able to mobilize dozens of personnel, cars, helicopters, etc at a moments notice.

Massive gun battles in broad daylight in full view of the public and no cops ever show up and both the bad guys and good guys escape at high speeds and continue their gunbattle on the streets of the city then the good guys lose them and both sides regroup at their respective hideouts. And no cops ever show up to quest anyone about the massive shoot out in broad daylight in the middle of the day or the chase which smashed every fruit truck and out door Cafe in its way

Every detective is a divorcee who smokes and at some point gets pulled off the case, only to solve it on his own time.

Another: guy asks girl if she knows how to use to gun. She precedes to cock and load the gun, thus assuring the guy she does.

Having everyone from new orleans or the rest of louisiana sound like they're from south carolina circa 1859


And every scene invloves a bunch of sweaty people sitting in a room with a slowly moving ceiling fan.

One of my pet peeves is when someone brings their pistol up to firing position, and it makes that clicking noise. You see that a lot in 24. What is that clicking? Where is coming from? Is there something rattling around inside the firearm?

Every witness in every crime remembers every little detail about every event and person there regardless of how long ago it was or how long they were there.

And if they don't, one picture of one person at at the event triggers their whole memory.

This is pretty stupid and and it usually involves shitty movies, but those same fart noises you hear. I feel like I've heard the same fart noise from 90s movies to present. Can they not come up with something better?i frickin cringe everytime I hear it. Terrible.

There's some other sound effects constantly used in movies....kids lauging, guy screaming. Again these are usually in shite movies but it's amazing that they would use the same damn sound in that many movies. I feel like I might be the only person that noticed this.

More on this. I hate how every henchman or someone working for a bad guy is poorly trained at shooting/fighting/anything pertaining to their job.
I mean your job is to risk your life to fight and shoot people and you are absolutely terrible at it, wtf are you doing?

My hands down biggest pet peve is the things that stop bullets. Regular doors in every house. Every piece of furniture. Car doors, a flipped table. frick a mattress even stops bullets sometimes.

Someone will flip a table and it stops a barrage of automatic fire for a couple minutes while they talk strategy then of course pistol snipe the shooter directly through the heart at over 30 yards without seeing him for more than a second.

Also, the hero can get shot a few times and get in 40 fistfight and be fine at the end of the movie. But literally everything kills henchman immediately. Being hit with any object in the head, any type of punch or kick combo, and a bullet anywhere instant death.
