Oh man, did that movie stink! As GDwarf notes, it has so many howlers that it would be far easier to list the things they got right, rather than the errors!
However, the scene he is referring to is right at the end when the shock wave from one of the nuclear bombs is heading toward them as they drift, powerless. The hero (cough, cough) suddenly remembers that the skin of the ship is able to generate electricity from the heat of its surroundings. He then proceeds to appear to attach a few wires randomly from the hull into various pieces of equipment (can't remember this - did he have a battery operated soldering iron, or something?) and re-power the ship. Luckily all the voltages, resistances, amperage and a whole bunch of other -age's were all just right and they escaped in the nick of time.
Although pigeons do use magnetic field for long distance navigation, I would be hugely surprised if an anomoly in the field would cause said pigeon to smack into a bloody great big building right in front of it. btw - if you have The Core on DVD, watch the pigeon scene in slow motion. Tell me that isn't a fish that smashes through the cafe window!!
