Did you know

• Director David Twohy has been quoted in interviews as saying he had to battle with the studio to allow the movie to continue on with an R-rating instead of a PG-13 version.

• Timothy Olyphant and Steve Zahn went to Jamaica to film the cove sequence in the kayaks. Olyphant said "You can get weed from anyone in Jamaica. You don't buy it 'cause everybody has it. There's no weed for sale. [...] One time I walked by the gardener of the hotel, and he reeked of weed. Then you go to the lobby, and they're also high. You can get room service to bring you weed. I am not making it up. They'll leave it on your bedside table. Part of the turndown service, a little joint on the bedside table."

• Before the reveal of the twist, Cliff/Rocky's teeth are clean and normal-looking. After the reveal, his teeth appear to be stained brown with cracks and cavities, typical of methamphetamine use.
