Bad physics. Totally pulls me out of immersion.
No, Captain America cannot lean back and hold a helicopter that is lifting off. It doesn’t matter how strong he is - he will be lifted once there is enough force generated from the propellers. Basically anything Batman does that involves gravity in the Nolan films is similar.
The magic I can get behind. The mutant stuff or dragons or even time travel in superhero movies doesn’t bother me. It’s the lack of sensible mechanics on an alleged Earth that I’m bothered by.
Maybe Captain America’s real power is that he is really heavy.
Concussions. Especially when they are used as plot vehicles where someone is knocked out, and they wake up in a jail cell or whatever.
If you got hit THAT hard on the head that you’re unconscious and unresponsive for hours? You are going to wake up dizzy, nauseated, and disoriented with a huge headache, loss of motor control, and a disorienting tinnitus. Possibly permanently. Your brain swelled up and cut off blood flow. You might look like a stroke victim. You will not wake up, rub your head, then pick a lock in a dark room and construct a bomb with a gum wrapper and a smoke detector battery. You will weep, vomit, and be unable to walk straight until you get real medical attention.
Some action stars get knocked out almost every episode. I think MacGyver would have been mentally incapacitated after just a few shows.
People driving while staring intently at their passenger for way too long.
and the driver jerkily moving the steering wheel like they’re on a rally course instead of most likely just a long straight road
I’m a software engineer, so basically anything involving software/hacking. It’s always inaccurate. (Because accurate hacking is incredibly boring.)
Entire plot lines hinging on people not explaining themselves which would take about 5 seconds.
The idiot plot.
Not only in movies, in series too. Fake coffee. People takes hot coffee in a disposable cup, never burn their hand, can drink it like water or says damn it’s hot but the cup is empty, they never dropped a drop, never choke, never spill it, etc. They can drink it and talk at the same time, run with it, etc. I hate it.
It’s a continuity thing, apparently. If the level in the cup keeps going up and down in a single scene, it’s more distracting than a clearly empty mug.
