Playing Rochefort, Mads Mikkelsen in this movie wears an eye-patch over the very same left eye that his Le Chiffre character wept blood in Casino Royale (2006). It's also over the eye Mikkelsen missed in Valhalla Rising (2009) when playing the viking warrior/spirit known as One-Eye.

Goofs

Although the airships are spectacular, in reality they would never get off the ground due to their weight. Airships had to be of very light construction to fly (no cannons, etc.) The airships in the film were lifted by streamlined hot air balloons, so fire did not present the issues that Hydrogen would have.

As the scene transitions from Meung Sur Loire to Paris, the map zooms from Meung Sur Loire to Paris. Based on the orientation of Notre Dame Cathedral, Meung Sur Loire would need to be to the north of Paris, when it fact it is to the south, though this map be a "deliberate" error by the filmmakers, since the alignment of the Seine in the map bears little to no resemblance to the actual geography of the Seine in Paris.

In the ball scene, when the musicians are tuning their instruments, they are using Tourte bows, a style of bow that was not created until the late 1700s, significantly after the movie takes place.
