10 Most Embarrassing CGI Moments In Recent Movies

The newly released Netflix thriller Carry-On is a fundamentally ridiculous but relatively entertaining slice of seasonal, Die Hard-inspired fun, but it's typically at its weakest when it leaves the airport where Taron Egerton's TSA officer is trying to prevent a terrorist attack.

And so, it's fitting that the audience is assaulted with some nauseatingly awful VFX when LAPD detective Elena Cole (Danielle Deadwyler) gets into a fight with a DHS agent, John Alcott (Logan Marshall-Green), who is actually an imposter.

In a failed attempt at a flashy "oner," the fight takes place over the course of a single 30-second shot while the pair wrestle for a gun, all while the car is careening across the freeway, smashing into other vehicles, and stray bullets are causing all manner of vehicular destruction in the area.

It's a neat idea for the shot, but the execution is horrid - the plastic-y, low-res viewpoint out of the car's windows makes it hilariously obvious we're watching two actors play-fighting each other in a stationary car on a green screen with all the cool stuff being keyed in later.

There's no sense of immersion or danger because it's impossible to buy into this sequence as anything even close to real.
