What's left behind the scenes
- When Matt (played by Liam Neeson) calls Carl, the image of Steve Mirkovich, who was involved in the editing process, appears on the screen instead of Carl.
- When the bomb squad removes the doors from the Mercedes, no wires are disconnected.
- The final scene shows a car driving on its side. In this position, the seat pressure sensor would not detect the presence of the driver, because the weight of their body would be distributed perpendicularly.
