    • Trivia
      When Lai is flipping through the pictures at Frank's house, the photo of the little boy with the monkey really is Jason Statham.
    • Goofs
      Lai is tied to a chair (hands and feet). She is able to get to the car by tiptoeing. How does she then open the door, drag herself and the chair into the car and close the door behind her? Not to mention the fact that someone as careful as Frank steals the car without noticing a woman tied to an office chair in the back seat.

    Pretty good action movie.

    The action/fight scenes themselves would explain the rating I'm giving this movie! Sure some of the action scenes are over the top but not so much to take away from the film itself, so for me, it worked! I thought the French detective guy played his role nicely and so did the Asian girl. This is definitely a rewatchable movie because some of the action/fight scenes are a nicely executed.
