Something a little unrealistic


This was a great movie, and they obviously went to great lengths to ensure that it was completely authentic in almost every detail.

There was just one thing that struck me as wrong.

Surely, a junior member of his office staff would not (on receiving the message from Matrix) tell a special forces general: "You'd better get out here"?

It seemed a very unmilitary way for a junior to address such a senior officer.

Apart from that, spot on.

I thought that too, I thought the jun member would just let him get on with it.

Yes, it was a documentary.

Philistine.

Also, a little unrealistic is after Matrix and Cindy break into the surplus store and the police arrive to arrest them, Matrix just casually walks out unescorted with no handcuffs. I'm also assuming Cindy saw or heard the police approaching and drove away, thus explaining why she wasn't arrested as well.

I didn't see any unrealistic scenes in this movie. Matrix broke out of the cuffs while being escorted out of the weapons store
