Trivia
While he is being held captive, Jody asks Fergus to "tell me a story, tell me anything." Fergus responds, "When I was a child, I thought as a child. But when I became a man, I put away childish things." Jody says, "What does that mean?" and Fergus responds, "Nothing." In fact, Fergus is quoting a famous passage from the Bible, in First Corinthians, Chapter 13.

Goofs
During the street assassination scene a sub-machine gun is used to attack officials entering a car; however, despite the wild spray of bullets and several officials on both sides of the car being hit, no glass breaks in any of the windows and there is no indication of any damage to the body of the car.
