Trivia:
Earlier Arnold Schwarzenegger was also considered for the lead role.

The music noticed in the film Juliette Lewis sings in the film was written by and originally performed by P.J. Harvey.

Originally Andy Garcia was down for the lead male role.

Four different camera systems were actually used throughout the arduous shoot, including various lighting systems developed by Matthew F. Leonetti's Hollywood-based "Leonetti Company."

The character of LAPD Chief Strickland is originally based on real-life LAPD Chief Daryl Gates.

Matthew F. Leonetti estimated that 50 to 60% of the film was shot with the Steadicam or some sort of moving camera.

The band seen playing at the Millennium party at the end of the movie is Testament, from San Francisco.

Originally Juliette Lewis did all her own vocals for the film.
