Trivia
As Stanley drives the Ferrari through the auto repair garage, he says, "Oh, well, why not?" He crashes through the window. On the outside of the glass it says "You wreck 'em. We fix 'em." a fitting message since he soon thereafter completely demolishes the car.
Quotes
General Hummel:
Congressman Weaver and esteemed members of the Special Armed Services Committee, I come before you to protest a grave injustice... It has to stop.
Goofs
(at around 37 mins) Mason uses the edge of a smashed quarter to score a circle in the interrogation room's one-way glass observation window. The metal of a quarter is too soft to score glass.
Alternate Versions
An Arabic-dubbed version of 'The Rock' was released in the GCC countries on December 1997. A number of cuts were made and in the Arabic-dubbed version, Goodspeed and his girlfriend were actually made husband and wife.
