- Box Office Bomb: Budget, $21 million. Box office, $970,816 (domestic, no typos there), $6,370,816 (worldwide). Directed by Jodie Foster, this turned out to be a botched comeback attempt for Mel Gibson as his personal troubles continued to overshadow his career (Hacksaw Ridge managed to restore his reputation instead).
- Creator Killer: Jodie Foster would not direct another movie until 2016's Money Monster, five years later.
- What Could Have Been:
- Jim Carrey and Steve Carell were previously attached to play Walter Black.
- Jodie Foster approached originally Kristen Stewart for the role of Norah, remembering their experience in Panic Room, but the actress was committed to the Twilight franchise.
