Cinema of Africa — The claim that 'Barsoum Looking for a Job' (1923) was the first film produced in Africa is factually incorrect, as earlier films such as Albert Samama Chikly's 1905 short documentaries were produced in Africa.

Cinema of Australia — The entry states that George Miller's five Mad Max films are commercial hits, but as of the widely-known canon, there are only four Mad Max films released (1979, 1981, 1985, 2015), not five.
