Trivia
All of the "bullet time"-like effects in this film were done by only two motion picture cameras, and all the "still" frames were generated with a computer.
Quotes
Iron Shirt Tin (Third Brother):
Time is money, don't you know that? I've lost a fortune just talking to you!
Goofs
In the English dub the team "mo gui dui" is translated into "Team Evil", even though that has nothing to do with the original name, a better translation is "Devils" or "Demons".
Crazy Credits
Outtakes are shown before the credits.
Alternate Versions
The DVD contains some additional scenes which can be viewed via integrated branching:
- a dancing number at the bakery with various pedestrians. This comes right after Sing meets Mui for the first time.
- when Sing gives Mui the shoes different lines are spoken and he introduces her to the team. Mui then has an argument and a fight with her boss.
- at the end a couple of outtakes.
