Anecdotes
The plot is similar to a real-life incident that happened in Erie, Pennsylvania in 2003, depicted in Les génies du mal (2018). The writers said they had "vague knowledge" of the case before writing. The victim's sister publicly lambasted the film, saying she doesn't think it's funny "to laugh at the innocent who are victimized by criminals, who care nothing for human life."

Gaffes
While watching Meurtres en 3 dimensions (1982), Dwayne tells his father there are 45 minutes left in the movie. However, the scene they are watching is the final scene in the film.

Stupid, but fun.

30 Minutes or Less is one short film, but snappier than a angry crocodile. The story's ludicrous, but sustains our suspension of disbelief. An immature man (Dany McBride), living under a strict, wealthy father, plots his assassination. Along with his not-as-stupid-but-still-stupid best friend (Nick Swardson), they strap a bomb to a pizza delivery guy (Jesse Eisenberg), and force him to rob a bank, so they can pay for a hit-man to bump off McBride's father. McBride and Swardson's stupidity match their unquestionable plans. The bank robbery's not exaggerated or understated thanks to the directing skills of Ruben Fleischer (known for Zombieland) and the main man Jesse Eisenberg. Now comfortable in the comedy field, Eisenberg naturally juggles humour with nerves. 30 Minutes or Less is chock-full of humour, action and energetic dialogue, all the while keeping character's traits. 30MoL comes with a weakness though: Danny McBride. He manages to uphold the 'biggest moron' and 'biggest typecast' awards, producing the fewest laughs. Aziz Ansari however, picks up the award for the most. He's the yin to Eisenberg's yang, joining Eisenberg on the nightmare of all days.
