What's left behind the scenes
- In scenes where Christopher Lambert's character wields a baseball bat, it is evident that the actor is utilizing skills acquired during his swordsmanship training for preparation for the films in the Highlander franchise (1986, 1990, 1994, 2000).
- In the final shootout scene, stunt doubles were used for the roles of Christopher Lambert and Ice-T (real name – Tracy Marrow), as it was filmed after the actors had already left.
- Christopher Lambert worked on the film for only two days. He was scheduled to work on the project for three days, but his schedule interfered.
