Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaSERIES TRADEMARK: When discovered at Frank's place, Tarconi uses the same excuse ("I'm the cook") that Lai gave to him in The Transporter (2002).
- GoofsWhen the gas is ignited from the cylinder in the doctor's office, the cylinder goes shooting down the hall. You can see that the valve is still intact. In reality, the gas escaping from the cylinder through a valve which is at a ninety degree angle to the cylinder such as the one shown, would force the bottle to spin, not to shoot out and fly in a straight line. Additionally, if the pressure of the gas were enough to move the cylinder, it would do so regardless of the gas being lit on fire. The burning, and subsequently expanding, gas would have no effect on the cylinder once it is outside of the valve as the burning gas does not increase the force on the cylinder.
- Quotes
Frank Martin: What's the first rule when entering a man's car?
Jack Billings: [takes his feet off the seat] Respect a man's car, a man respects you.
Frank Martin: Rule number two?
Jack Billings: Greet the man. Good afternoon, Frank.
Frank Martin: Good afternoon, Jack.
Jack Billings: Can we play the game now?
Frank Martin: I would think your brain would be too tired after a whole day of school.
Jack Billings: You're just afraid I'm gonna win.
Frank Martin: I'm afraid you're gonna be too worn out to do your homework.
Jack Billings: It's Friday, I don't *have* any homework.
Frank Martin: In that case: the game.
Jack Billings: Yes!
Frank Martin: But first, what's the third rule of the car?
[Jack buckles his seatbelt]
Frank Martin: Good.
- Crazy creditsIn the opening credits, the actors names appear to be hanging from the ceiling of the parking garage.
- Alternate versionsUS version was edited for violence (the scene where Frank fights with an iron bar, digital removal of blood) and sexuality (shots of Kate Nauta's naked butt, digital retouching of shots where you could see her nipples) to secure a more commercial PG-13 rating. This version is ca. 25 seconds shorter.

Featured review
Action, explosions, total disregard for physics. EXCELLENT.
So many critics are already lining up to pick at the plot, the action scenes, and the details it's just sad.
This is an action movie with twists and turns, some believable, some not so. If you liked The Fifth Element, The Professional, Le Femme Nikita, and True Lies, this is your movie. If you grew up on Bond, Dukes, and Blade Runner, you'll love it.
Just relax, ignore all those physics lessons on momentum, dynamics, and forces, and enjoy.
If, on the other hand, you want to pay good money to sit in a theater and keep a mental list of all the problems, bs, bad lines, and so on, it's your life.
Personally, I adapt and enjoy.
