| 1 | * ActingForTwo: Several actors play counterpart characters from the different dimensions; Jet Li plays both protagonist and antagonist, plus a few additional ones that we see getting killed off. Each character is significantly different from the other; Creator/CarlaGugino plays Gabe's loving wife and Yulaw's rather trampy-looking consort. [[spoiler: She also plays his wife's BackupTwin in another universe.]] |
| 2 | * FakeAmerican: Englishman Creator/JasonStatham as the American Funsch. |
| 3 | * FollowTheLeader: The movie capitalized on the popularity of themes and ideas inspired by ''Film/TheMatrix'' during the late [[TheNineties 90s]][=/=]early [[TurnOfTheMillennium 2000s]]. The title itself was even mostly seen a less-than-subtle reference to Neo. |
| 4 | * PlayingAgainstType: Creator/JetLi plays a villain, and he's [[SugarWiki/HeReallyCanAct freaking terrifying]]. Also, Creator/JasonStatham is NOT an unstoppable badass, and actually shows a range of emotions instead of his usual menacing scowl. |
| 5 | * WhatCouldHaveBeen: |
| 6 | ** Originally, the film was supposed to star [[Wrestling/DwayneJohnson The Rock]] as the main character, but he chose to do ''Film/TheScorpionKing'' instead. Imagine two doubles giving each other the "eyebrow". |
