Factual error: Both the Yugoslav police officers Poirot is speaking to at the end are black. The chances of a black person serving in the Yugoslav police in the 1930s were zero.
Plot hole: Spoilers. It's revealed that the barn game takes place at an old farmhouse owned by the family of Jill Tuck - Jigsaw's widow. It's public knowledge that she was married to Jigsaw and that buildings they owned served as the headquarters of several past traps, so the barn should have been investigated at some point in the meantime. Ten years have passed. It makes no sense that the barn was never investigated and that the bodies of the barn victims were never discovered.
Factual error: In the first frontal shot of Percival's Porsche following Lorraine, virtually every car parked at the side of the road is from after 1989, one of them not even being on sale until 2007. (00:16:10)
Revealing mistake: When the FBI agent is in the room of the court medic to get the cause of death, in several shots the sliced up corpse is breathing. (00:27:00 - 00:29:30)
Other mistake: Where did those spikes above and below the rear door come from? They exceed the height of the door.
Continuity mistake: On the third and fourth day, Carter's roommate shows up earlier than the first 2 days. And Tree's suspect tips notebook every day don't reset and the line and erases are the same.
Factual error: Sister Charlotte listens to Janice's confession. Only a priest is allowed by the church to hear confessions.
Continuity mistake: When Shawn first holds up the jerky to distract the guard dog, he's holding the torch in his right hand and the bag of jerky in his left. We cut to a wider shot and the items have instantly switched hands. (00:26:50)
Visible crew/equipment: When "James" begins to repeat his "dark and stormy night" story to Carolyn it then cuts to him leaving her home, and just as Carolyn shuts the front door, the reflection of the moving boom pole can be seen on the glass window to the right. (00:31:20)
Continuity mistake: There's a vase of yellow flowers to the right of the helium "Happy Birthday" balloon (and screen). When Ashley gets up to answer the door, she walks past the balloon and the vase of flowers should be visible but is not. (00:01:40 - 00:02:28)
Continuity mistake: Addison put his sweater on (over his neck and arms into the sleeves). After his dad asked him if he was OK, the view of Addison in the mirror showed him putting his sweater on again. (00:16:04)
Factual error: The black leather chair of the Home trust banker is more modern than the movie setting in 1922. (00:59:35)
Continuity mistake: Gardner Lodge first takes a bite from the corner of the peanut butter and jelly sandwich and sets it back on the plate. The camera angle changes and when he is seen holding the sandwich again the bite is now taken from the middle of the sandwich. (01:28:55)
Revealing mistake: The bartender (Kateryna Korchynska) offers Ethan two lattes on the house. She hands them to him, and he walks out. No opacity from the liquid can be seen inside the plastic cups, and when he is moving away from the counter he leans forward quite a bit, showing the inside of the cups, squeaky clean. (00:08:00)
Continuity mistake: Maggie gets downstairs while Henry and her daughter are playing with their phones. The hair goes in front and behind her right shoulder depending on the camera angle. (00:03:00)
Other mistake: The private investigator has a full size Glock. The Glock 21 which is a .45 ACP has the lowest magazine capacity of 13 rounds. The 9mm capacity for the Glock 17 is 17 rounds. The PI exchanges gun fire and after he fires 7 rounds, his gun runs dry. Makes no sense to bring a half empty gun to a fight, plus he just got it back from his brother-in-law. (01:05:00 - 01:06:00)
Factual error: The film informs us the gravity on Neptune's moon Triton is less than 8% of Earth's. But the whole physics of the rocks and his movement on the surface do not reflect that. The actual surface is frozen nitrogen. The difficulty he has in moving around is not well correlated by him only weighing 7kg. Https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5361488/.
Continuity mistake: Charlie was standing in the hole he dug and his head was below ground-level, but when Eliza was talking to him, Charlie's head was above-ground. Half of Charlie's back was above-ground when his mother [Toni Collette] was outside. Front views of Charlie standing in the hole still showed him against dirt (head below surface-level) even after he was just shown with his head above-ground. (00:51:10 - 00:51:46)
Suggested correction: The game was unknown to police even 10 years after John died. Now they've found all his other games and his multiple lairs. There would be no need to continue the search.

Hogwash. They would have definitely searched known properties associated with Kramer and his family.
I agree. In the second Saw movie, the police discover that John Kramer is Jigsaw. With this knowledge, not only would the police be able to freeze his assets but, they would be able to look into his financial records and look into any properties he owns like houses, warehouses, etc. Since the cops now have a face and a name, it's a very big plot hole why they never searched his home or any other places. If they had, more traps would have been found and confiscated.
