Unfortunately, not every movie can be blessed with the budget or time to pull off an out-of-this-world stunt that leaves audiences picking their jaws up off the floor mid-way through a picture. So, sometimes ingenious alternatives need to be relied on. Sadly, this next entry doesn't fall into that category in the slightest.

As Justin Timberlake's Will Salas and Amanda Seyfried's Sylvia Weis's vehicle is suddenly upended by some road spikes and sent soaring through the air during In Time, instead of a genuine sports car being thrusted down a hill, what appears to be the least-legit-looking miniature in cinema history trickles down a slope... no doubt eliciting fits of unexpected laughter in theatres worldwide.

The flick itself isn't actually half bad, with the concept of humans using time as currency after they stop ageing at 25 being an intriguing one, to say the least. So, it's just a shame that the only real talking point folks tend to have when discussing this 2011 sci-fi thriller centres around a toy car going for a tumble.
