Here's a problem I see often in perspective drawings: objects which should share the same horizon that are mistakenly angled toward different horizons.

Just because they are in different areas (foreground box vs. background buildings) doesn't mean they have different horizons. ImageImage
The exception to this is when one or more of the objects is resting on a sloped surface instead of on a flat surface. So, if that box in the foreground were tilted because it were sitting on a slope, then locating its vanishing point on a different horizon would be justified.
I suspect what happened here is that the crew placed a photo of a city in the background and a real box in the foreground, assuming the camera would remain high. Then the director lowered the camera for a more dramatic shot, which changed the box's horizon but not the photo's.
