Continuity mistake: SPOILERS: In the post-credits scene, after Henry's trap starts, in the second-to-last shot, you see him sort of start to shake and rear his head back. But then in the next shot, he's no longer shaking. Additionally, his head is down again and he rears it back a second time.

Continuity mistake: When the custodian grabs the watch out of the drawer at the start of the film, the way he's holding it changes instantly between cuts. (First he's only holding it in his right hand, then he's suddenly holding it with both hands.)

Continuity mistake: When Valentina grabs the wire in front of her neck and cuts her hands, the blood pattern changes between cuts. (There's suddenly less blood in the second shot, revealing it's a different take.)

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When Gabriella is kidnapped, as Amanda approaches the door of the stall she's in, the way she's holding her purse changes between shots. When it cuts to the angle above, the straps go from over her hands to under her hands.

Continuity mistake: When John is fixing Carlos' bike wheel, throughout the scene, it is leaning backwards towards John. However, right before he pulls it out of the vice, it is suddenly leaning forwards towards Carlos. (John never pushed it forward.)

Continuity mistake: When John puts Carlos' bike wheel in the vice, his right hand goes from cranking the vice to holding the side of the wheel as it cuts to Carlos.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: After Cecilia points out Carlos and his father to John while showing him around, they begin walking again. John goes from walking a few feet behind Cecilia to right next to her between cuts.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When John is watching the video of Cecilia, he reaches up and puts his right hand against his face. It then cuts to the opposite angle, and suddenly it's switched to John's left hand being against his face.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When the custodian twists the dial to position two on his trap, his fingers go from extended to curled instantly between cuts.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When the custodian parks his vacuum near the hospital bed at the start of the film, in the first shot, his vacuum is near the middle of the bed. The camera cuts, and suddenly it's down near the foot of the bed.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: Henry writes down the web address "theperdersonproject.net" on a napkin for John. In the next scene, when John checks the napkin, the writing is slightly different. It almost matches, but a few of the letters are ever-so-slightly bigger or smaller, and the spacing is subtly different.

TedStixon

Revealing mistake: John Kramer's chain first goes on the side of his stomach, and then it's on his backside... impossible, otherwise the chain would split him. (01:35:47)

Trivia: As part of the film's marketing, the studio made a spoof of AMC Theaters' "We Come to This Place" commercial that plays just before films in their theaters start, with Billy the Puppet in place of Nicole Kidman. In response, AMC's CEO, Adam Aron, actually asked Lionsgate to pull the ad, to which the latter obliged.

Question: What happens to the lady after the film ends that has her head in the hole? As during the film, she shows she has no morals. In the rest of the movies, you never hear her name mentioned or what happened to her. But surely, with him trapping her and taking the money at the end, it would piss her off enough to want to get the money back and seek revenge on him.

Answer: If I'm not mistaken, the room she was in was locked. She may have been able to survive the trap by sticking her head through the opening, but if she has no way of leaving the room, eventually she would starve to death.

Phaneron

Answer: There's no definitive answer. It's left purposely ambiguous, presumably in case they want to bring the character back in the future. (There is a deleted scene on the Blu-Ray showing the door opening on its own once the countdown hits zero, so presumably she is able to escape.) As for her coming for him... we simply don't know. It's possible she'll show up again in a future film. But you also have to factor in that John has a LOT of evidence on her criminal misdeeds... so he likely could have her arrested and jailed if she comes for him.
