Continuity 

When Hoffman's glass coffin ejects from the 'crushing room', his face is visible. However, in the flashback footage from Saw V, Agent Strahm's blood spatters further across the panel, hiding Hoffman completely from view.

When Hoffman raises the lid to the glass box after escaping the Crushing Room, the blood remains on the lid in a fixed pattern, showing it is dry, even though it was only spurted on to it seconds before.

(at around 30 mins) When Simone is in the hospital, and Detective Hoffman visits her, there is a hand on her shoulder in the "close up" view to clam her down after Hoffman asks her if she "learned." However, when the camera zooms out a few seconds later, the nurse is just then going up toward her, to put her hand on Simone's shoulder.

When the coroner is talking to Hoffman and the Feds, he says that the knife used to remove the jigsaw piece from Eddie had a partially serrated edge. The coroner then claims that same knife was used to cut the jigsaw piece from Seth Baxter. However, in Saw V you can clearly see that the knife used to remove the jigsaw piece from Seth Baxter is a non-serrated scalpel, not the "knife with a partially-serrated edge" that the coroner claims was used.

Factual errors 

During the footage of John Kramer when he is ill and apparently going through chemotherapy, he quite clearly has a small, thin beard on his chin. Chemotherapy kills rapidly dividing cells, such as cancer cells, hair cells and fingernails. It would be impossible to grow facial hair when going through this therapy.

For Hoffman to get his other hand out of the chain, he would have to use the crushed hand, yet if his hand bones were even mildly broken, he couldn't have used them.

Revealing mistakes 

When Detective Hoffman is brought to the scene of the first crime, he looks down at Eddie, who you can clearly see breathing, even though he is already dead.

During the Steam trap, the trajectory of the trap is completely off. When it fires, it is shown entering her neck, but a couple seconds later it is seen sticking out of her skull above her left eye. It should either have gone through her neck and out the back, or sticking out the back of her head instead.
