10 Movie Goofs That Neither Directors Nor Even Editors Noticed, But Some Attentive Viewers Did

It is common that there are dozens of mishaps in every movie, even blockbusters. Although there are hundreds or sometimes thousands of people working on a single movie, they can’t always guarantee that no unexpected movie goofs existed in the completed film.

Over the years, many attentive viewers shared hard-to-spot mistakes and continuity errors they caught while enjoying films, whether it’s a continuity error or part of the crew getting in the shot. Some kinds of mistakes can be deleted digitally today but some which more intertwined with the scene are impossible to scrub out. Even when spotting the presence of these goofs, sometimes directors, editors or moviemakers went unnoticed but fortunately, attentive viewers did.

We've completed a list of movie goofs that movie makers went unnoticed but some eagle-eyed viewers did and shared them publicly. If you want to see more, click Times That Movie Creators Turned a Blind Eye To Costumes, Mistakes That Made It Into The Movie, and 12 Ridiculous Mistakes.

The creators tried their best to ensure the costumes match their historic era but there is a tiny mistake in Mary Crawley’s undergarments.

Hercule Poirot got noticed by wearing a sophisticated “shield” for his mustache on his first night on the Orient Express. However, on the second one, it disappeared. This forgetfulness contradicts Poirot’s scrupulosity and looks like a mistake made by the moviemakers.

At the beginning of the movie, the character Mary Stuart first appears at age 19 and the movie ended with her execution in 1578. It is about 26 years old but we can’t see any difference in the queen’s look except for her hairstyle. It is the same as Queen Elizabeth I, played by Margot Robbie.

The events of the movie are set in the northwest of America in the 19th century. The main hero, Hugh Glass, undergoes extremely severe winter conditions. He has a water flask only but there is neither a knife nor a blade. That makes many fans wonder why his mustache doesn’t seem to grow.
