Trivia
The photo used next to the 'City Eats' article about Tom's food truck is the actual promotional shot of Jason Segel for the sixth season of How I Met Your Mother (2005).

One of the tacos that Tom sells is called the 'wolverine' taco. The Wolverine also happens to be the mascot of The University of Michigan, which Violet attends.

The dress Violet wears at Suzy's wedding is the same dress that Suzy wears at Violet's impromptu wedding.

Goofs
The morning after Tom and Violet's engagement party, Tom's hand is inconsistently holding to Violet's arm in succeeding sequences.
Share this
When Violet is leaving the church of the final grandparent's funeral in England she has a haircut with a fringe (which she has whilst dating Winton). When she returns to the USA with Tom the fringe is gone and remains gone for the rest of the movie.
Share this
During Tom's conversation with his parents at breakfast, Tom picks up his fork and in the next shot he picks it up again. His mom's drink also changes positions and levels throughout the meal.

Q
How much sex, violence, and profanity are in this movie?
A
For detailed information about the amounts and types of (a) sex and nudity, (b) violence and gore, (c) profanity, (d) alcohol, drugs, and smoking, and (e) frightening and intense scenes in this movie, consult the IMDb Parents Guide for this movie. The Parents Guide for The Five-Year Engagement can be found here.
Q
What are the differences between the R-Rated and Unrated Version?
A
The US Blu-ray and DVD releases also contain the 7 minutes longer Unrated Version. In the UK, this has so far only been stated for the upcoming Blu-ray, the DVD promos do not mentioned the extensions so far. Of course, if a comedy that has already been rated R gets an Unrated Version it always seems a bit suspicious. Quite often these new movie cuts only contain additional footage that had originally been left out for a reason (mostly to make the movie tighter). This is also the case here, but it has to be mentioned that at least it was not used as a marketing trick and that the releases contain both of the versions anyway. The only thing worth mentioning about the new footage is that two scenes introduce a new character, Violet's ex Gideon, which makes her look a bit different. The scene with the muppet voices at the end was extended as well, the ones that liked this bit will certainly approve. A detailed comparison between both versions with pictures can be found here.
Q
What is the first song?
A
"Jackie Wilson Said" by Kevin Rowland and Dexy's Midnight Runners . The complete list of songs heard in the movie can be found here with their corresponding scene descriptions.
