I can’t think of an example right now but I absolutely cannot watch French films with English subtitles and vice versa because I spend too much time raging at inaccuracies. Or I get caught thinking about how I would translate something myself and I quite literally lose the plot.
I get that translation cannot always be 100% accurate to account for cultural differences for example, but sometimes it’s just plain wrong.

Same for me with English and Spanish :-/
Just the most silly things get mistranslated, and it’s no wonder some English films don’t do well in Spain when the dubs are so far off!
