15 Stupid Mistakes That Somehow Made It Into 2017 Movies

12. How Is This Camera Angle Possible? - Logan

Logan X 24
Fox

Almost immediately after Logan's (Hugh Jackman) clone X-24 shows up and kills Charles Xavier (Patrick Stewart), he turns his attention to the Munsons' son Nate (Quincy Fouse), who attacks him with a baseball bat.

However, Nate's quickly dispatched by X-24's claws, which the audience views through a monitor that's also being watched by Zander Rice (Richard E. Grant) and Donald Pierce (Boyd Holbrook).

While at first it seems perfectly plausible to assume that X-24 simply has a camera installed in his head somewhere, as he kills Nate it becomes clear that the shot was filmed over Hugh Jackman's shoulder, which just makes no damn sense at all. Who the hell filmed it?

Considering how tight the movie generally is, this felt incredibly sloppy, especially as the shot wasn't even a particularly necessary inclusion.
