- TriviaThe final entry in the film's closing credits consists of the words "For Herbert". Herbert Wong was Tom Dong's real name.
- GoofsNear the end of the film when Steven Driver is obsessively watching a film while Eric and his staff try to get him to leave, it's shown that the film is an Asian martial arts film. In reality, he was watching a film before he went on his lethal and bloody rampage, but it was the 2005 film "Kingdom of Heaven" and he kept watching a scene involving a brutal and gore-filled battle.

I liked it
Not a story I was aware of. Well acted, probably cut down a bit for time like most films. The key characters are reasonably well explained, perhaps one fringe character isn't, but they are being used for effect. It's done well, but moves fast towards the finish....which makes sense considering the mental health of the main character.....it doesn't dwell on the stuff that is thrown in to pad it out. Also I like that it doesn't create overly sympathetic characters, nor monsters. It's not a faithful to every detail biopic, it's going for a feeling of what happened and possibly why it happened
