Trivia

In the scenes where Jean-Claude Van Damme and Ron Silver are in their respective cars, the actors were shot on blue screen. The White House and D.C. backgrounds were added digitally in post-production.

In the beginning, Melissa hears in the mall "Does Anybody Know What Time it Is?", by Chicago. Its lyrics has to do with a stranger asking for the time. She is again approached later by an unrecognizable (at first) Max.

In the fight scenes in the last act of the film, Jean-Claude Van Damme's stunt double was used to create the illusion of the younger Max Walker. This was also done for Ron Silver's character of Senator McComb.

Goofs

Walker's job is to prevent people using time-travel to alter the past, thereby changing the future; this is what he's trying to prevent McComb, the film's main antagonist, from achieving. However, when Walker himself travels through time, he does not hesitate to cause as much damage to his surroundings as humanly possible. When he travels back to 1928, for example, he beats up two security guards, fires a futuristic laser-cannon in front of a large crowd of people, then jumps out of a window with the criminal in tow, and disappears into a wormhole above a busy street in New York City. Doing these things would drastically alter history, but none of these events seem to have any noticeable effect on the future/present.

At 22 minutes and 44 seconds during the jump from the building in the 1929, the reflection of a modern building called the 'Harbour Centre' can be seen in one of the windows. The 'Harbour Centre' is a building located in Vancouver, B.C., Canada, not New York City. Further, the 'Harbour Centre' was opened in 1977.

In the fight scene at the end in the attic, Van Damme's double can be clearly seen when kicking the intruder down the stairs.

Quotes

Max Walker: I'll tell you this, if I can't go back to save her; this scumbag is not going back to steal money.

Eugene Matuzak: Here goes the pension.

Senator Aaron McComb: You see, I'm an ambitious Harvard-educated visionary who deserves to be the most powerful man in the world and you... you're a fucking idiot who never figured out that the only way to make anything of himself with all that fancy kicking was on Broadway.
