Trivia
The veterans of the U.S.S. Missouri that Stone Hopper mentions are real life vets of the U.S.S. Missouri. Some served in World War II.

Goofs
When the full reverse command was given, an underwater view showed the propellers reversing their rotation. Arleigh Burke destroyers utilize reversible pitch propellers and therefore do not change their rotational direction during reversing maneuvers, they simply change the pitch of the blades to provide reversing thrust.

Quotes
[after Hopper's tactic destroys the alien ship]
Captain Yugi Nagata: I can't believe that worked!
Alex Hopper: Yeah, Art of War, "fight the enemy where they aren't." After all these years, that finally just clicked.
Captain Yugi Nagata: But that's not what it means.
Alex Hopper: ...Really?
Captain Yugi Nagata: Not even close.

Crazy credits

As one user put it ... Guilty Pleasure

I don't care what the hatters think. To me a movie is supposed to entertain you. This movie for me is very entertaining. Is it the best movie ever made...not by a long shot but it has what it takes to keep you paying attention. It was a fun movie to watch and I actually find myself watching it everything it's on. It is on my same list as Armageddon, Deep Impact, Independence Day and Dawn of the Dead.... Just pure entertainment. And what is even more admirable about this movie is that it used actually military as extras and wounded warriors as extras as well. Any movie that honors our veterans and includes them is definitely a movie that I will love. SO THERE! HA!
