* StarDerailingRole: This movie, along with ''Film/{{Battleship}}'', effectively destroyed any chance Creator/BrooklynDecker had at becoming a major Hollywood star. Meanwhile, Creator/AdamSandler and Creator/JenniferAniston came out of this mess relatively unscathed (Sandler is no worse off than he was before, at any rate).
* StuntCasting: Some critics wondered if Creator/BaileeMadison was cast simply because her name was similar to [[Film/BillyMadison Adam Sandler's debut movie]]. Creator/NicoleKidman and [[Music/DaveMatthewsBand Dave Matthews]] are more traditional examples.
* WorkingTitle: ''Holiday in Hawaii'' and ''Pretend Wife''.
