Movie Mistakes?

Let's answer all the movies blunders, faux pas and missed editing opportunists here.
1) Microwave bomb: plauseable, we know there are a bunch of household kitchen chemicals combined with heat that could ignite but really explode with that magnitude?? The cocktail of possibly ammonia, vinegar, bleach or high proof cooking brandy. Whatever it could have been the vapors did have a lot of time to built up for a nice pop. Tommy had the power turned on for about 30-60 seconds before the timer beeped at the last 5 seconds. Tommy got lucky, movie could have been over with his death right there.

2) After Krill locks up Steven in the meat locker, then rounds up the crew on the mess deck, right next to the galley BTW. Then walks the prisoners through the only large galley on board, notice the two large kettles. They didn't see Stevens guard as they came through, come on really? Stevens should have died there, movie over Tommy wins.

3) The container of four Tomahawks on deck that Krill shows Tommy, are they in their firing position? Is that what they're fired from? The rest of the Tomahawks are down below, how does the Navy get them from below deck to this supposed firing position? So, wouldn't it had been easier to off load to the sub using the Navy's own reloading procedures to get the other 28 Tomahawks topside then overboard to the sub?
