Continuity: The Grandfather opens the book twice.

Continuity: The car at the head of the bed moves.

Continuity: The state of the Grandson's peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

Revealing mistakes: Fezzik obviously being pulled up the cliff by a wire.

Revealing mistakes: When dueling, Inigo and the Man In Black sometimes have two shadows.

Continuity: The dust on the Man In Black's clothes shifts constantly throughout the duel with Inigo.

Continuity: The Man In Black tosses his sword and it sticks in the ground a fair distance away. In a subsequent shot it is much closer.

Continuity: The rock which blocks the way is gone after the Man In Black beats Fezzik.

Continuity: The Man In Black's sword suddenly sheaths itself when he steps towards Vizzini.

Continuity: Running across the countryside with the Man In Black, Buttercup's red tights disappear and reappear in subsequent shots.

Continuity: Inigo's hairstyle after being sobered by Fezzik.

Continuity: When Fezzik and Inigo rescue Westley from the Machine, Westley has a wound on his left arm. By the time they get to Miracle Max's, the wound is gone.

Revealing mistakes: When Fezzik leans Westley on the castle wall, the wall moves.

Audio/visual unsynchronised: On the castle wall, Inigo says "I'll say" without moving his lips.

Incorrectly regarded as goofs: Several continuity errors are a consequence of the fact that the bulk of the film is a visualization of a story being told by the Grandfather. Additionally, the story itself contains one scene where events depicted as happening were subsequently revealed to be a nightmare.
