Did You Know?
| Trivia | The police station was filmed on the fifth floor of West Island School in Hong Kong. The meeting room is the study room of the upper school area, and it also doubles as the infirmary. Other scenes take place right outside of that room. In fact, you can see the blue lockers in the background. See more » |
| Goofs | In a meeting early in the movie, the discussion is interrupted by Chan's belated entrance. As Chan takes his seat, we see computer screens behind him. Between shots, these screens change three times though everyone in the room is seated at the table and the people nearest the computers are facing away from the keyboards. See more » |
