    Storyline

    • Trivia
      When Will Sawyer and Zhao first meet, Sawyer greets him with some Mandarin, and Zhao replies in the same language but there are no subtitles on the screen. He is asking in jest, "Your Mandarin is quite good; how is your English?".
    • Goofs
      The original plan for acquiring the tablet was for it to be stolen from Will's bag at the boat dock. However, the tablet is bio-metrically locked to Will's face and so if the tablet was stolen from the bag as planned, then there would be no way to unlock it without Will and no way to disable the fire systems.
    • Quotes

      Will Sawyer: If you can't fix it with duct tape... you ain't using enough duct tape.

    • Crazy credits
      When the title is shown on screen in the opening credits, it's shown vertically alongside the Pearl building. This also happens in the end credits.

    Stay home and watch Die Hard!
    It's not actually awful or even bad per se, but it's worse.. yes it's mediocrity defined! It's predictable, rather boring and all the best parts have been shown in the trailers. Dwayne Johnson is good, but can't save this. Sorry!
