Many movies in Hollywood are based on actual Historical events. Thus error and mistakes are bound to take place. Though Minor factual mistakes go unnoticed, major mistakes don't. Especially the ones with costume mistakes.

Gladiator, Pirates of the Caribbean and Braveheart are just a few of the movies whose inaccuracies have caused an uproar and major controversies. There is a huge list of such mistakes in movies.

So, here we bring to you 25 of the biggest and the most shocking mistakes of some of the greatest movies of all times:

1 Captain America:

The First Avenger: In Captain America: The First Avenger, Jim Mortia wears a headset, the kind which was produced only after 2000, underneath his hat. But actually, the movie was set in the era of world war II.

In Django Unchained, Django is seen wearing sunglasses, which were not very widespread in the US before 1929. Before this, they were put to use as medical devices and were quite rare.

In the movie, set in 1938, many Nazis are seen wearing WWII medals, even before the war commenced.

12 Pirates of the Caribbean:

In the movie, George I is the King of England, who ruled from 1714 to 1727, which implies that the movie is set in this time, but the Royal Navy us seen wearing uniforms introduced in 1747.
