  • Best Known for the Fanservice: Dean and Q's relationship is emerging as one of the most popular aspects of the movie online, and that includes their sex scene. It's considerably more aggressive and brazenly Fanservice compared with Joe and Sydney's WAFFy romance, despite being shorter than the latter couple's sex scenes.
  • Fridge Brilliance: That Dean is the narrator, granting him control of the story and the opportunity to make himself sound sympathetic (e.g. betraying Joe, then talking to the viewer about how he regrets selling his friend out at the end).
  • Germans Love David Hasselhoff: Southeast Asian fans received the news of its release with notable positivity and warmth.
  • Just Here for Godzilla: Ironically, while Kevin Spacey caused the film to fail at the box office due to his allegations, of the people who did see this movie, most agreed that he was the best thing about it given his performance, stating that if you can look past the real life allegations, he might be the only reason to see the film, since it is otherwise So Okay, It's Average.
  • Overshadowed by Controversy: The film struggled to find a distributor even before Kevin Spacey's history as a sexual predator came into light. It worsened after the scandals. When the film was released, though with little publicity in the West, there was no shortage of headlines that neglected to mention how allegations against Spacey had not been made yet when the film was shot more than two years ago.
  • So Okay, It's Average: The film itself got mixed reviews, though Kevin Spacey's performance was well received.
