Trivia
Christian Bale stopped talking to Chris Rock on set. He claimed that he was very funny, which made it hard for him to act.

Goofs
Mike Myers' character is captioned as being MI6. Although the British Secret Service Bureau was created in 1909, it was not known as MI6 until World War II.

Quotes
Burt Berendsen: Each one of us is given a tapestry, our own opera. This person and this person. Thinking about it... love is not enough. You got to fight to protect kindness. You get attached to people and things. And they might just break your heart... but that's being alive.

Crazy credits
Before ending credits, video of US Marine Corps Major Gen. Smedley Butler, the man on whom the film based the character of Gen. Dillenbeck, is shown side by side with video of Butler's speech.

WAY too many movies all thrown into one

A quirky genre-bending caper with a political bent seems right up David O. Russell's alley. Unfortunately, this movie just never gels. At all. It feels like 10 different movies with 10 different casts, even if those casts are flat out jaw-dropping. I enjoyed some of those movies more than others (e.g. The farcical scenes when Russell pretended to be Wes Anderson), but every time I started getting interested in a plot or enjoying a performance, the whole thing swerved. And more often than not it served right off the road.

Also, was Bale doing a Peter Falk impersonation? I kept waiting for him to light a cigar and say, "Just one more thing..."
