    • Trivia
      Keanu Reeves breaking the glass on the bus door in the beginning of the movie was an accident, however it was left in the final cut.
    • Goofs
      On the train, the console is malfuntioning but Jack speeds the train up by shifting the lever forward so why not pull the lever back which would slow the train down.
    • Quotes

      Howard Payne: Pop quiz, hotshot. There's a bomb on a bus. Once the bus goes 50 miles an hour, the bomb is armed. If it drops below 50, it blows up. What do you do? What do you do?

    • Alternate versions
      Theatrical version had the 1981 20th Century Fox logo at the opening. All VHS, Laserdisc and DVD versions plaster this with the 1994 CGI logo (with the 1981 fanfare) that was used until 2009. However, the Blu-ray release and streaming prints restore the original 1981 logo.

    All out 90's Cheese (The Best Kind)
    Generic? Yup, Contrived? Of course, Fun? Absolutely! A brilliant first time Watch I can't lie, Fantastic all round performances and brilliantly tense action sequences there's not much wrong with this piece of film here and I can't recommend it enough, the original (and best) of over the top action ala 'The fast and the furious' franchise it's totally worth a watch, nothing but fun!
