• Hilarious in Hindsight: Four years prior, Carla Gugino starred in the television series Threshold, in which she played an The Men In Black-type similar to Henry Burke.
• Idiot Plot: The kids have to retrieve some technology from Earth to save their planet, so rather than send scouts to find this technology, the aliens send a bounty hunter to stop them rather than help because they really want to invade our planet...

• Special Effects Failure: The bullet scene.
