In the dog's bed, a Flat Eric puppet is visible. Flat Eric is a character created by Quentin Dupieux in 1999, with Janet Knechtel and Jim Henson's Creature Shop, and has been featured in commercials for Levi's, episodes of The Office (2001), and several shorts.
Chase Whale of Twitch Film enjoyed the film: "Writer/director/composer/editor/cinematographer/auteur/weirdo Quentin Dupieux is a guy who pulls the mat right out from under the Hollywood norm and takes bold and colorful chances.... What makes Dupieux's movies so infectious is that in the wildly weird universe he creates, there is a brilliant undertone throughout all of the oddities happening.... Wrong will leave you strangely addicted to Dupieux's world."
The soundtrack to Wrong was produced by Quentin Dupieux under his stage name Mr. Oizo and French electro-rock music producer David Sztanke under the name "Tahiti Boy". Track 7 and 12 were produced by Sztanke's group "Tahiti Boy & The Palmtree Family".
Simon Abrams of Slant Magazine did not feel that the film worked: "The quasi-nihilistic, absurdist and totally surrealistic ideology behind Wrong, writer/director/editor/musician Quentin Dupieux's follow-up to Rubber, is more exciting in theory than it is in practice... It's only tempting whenever Wrong isn't actively devolving into an interminable laundry list of strange things that mostly prove how jaded Dupieux is."
The film premiered at the 2012 Sundance Film Festival. It was part of the Toronto International Film Festival's Official Selection.
