Trivia: When Theo is walking down the ramp on Battersea Power Station, a stenciled image of two policemen kissing can be seen on a wall. The image was created by “Banksy”, a British “guerilla artist” who specializes in that kind of work. Other Banksy works appear in the film, including a stenciled image of a child looking down a shop.

Goofs: Continuity: When Nigel yells at Alex to take his pills, Alex takes the first pill and drinks some water. The next camera shot of Alex shows him taking a second pill but his glass has water in it than before. Also, in these same three camera swaps Nigel’s pill box moves closer to his wine glass, which now has less wine than the previous shot, even though Nigel’s position doesn’t change.
