| 1 | * CaliforniaDoubling: The fictional {{Qurac}} is played by Sofia and Plovdiv, Bulgaria. |
| 2 | * FakeNationality: [[PlayingWithATrope Played with.]] Turaqistan is not a real country, Creator/HilaryDuff is certainly not Central Asian. [[spoiler:[[AvertedTrope Later averted,]] since she turns out to be the secret daughter of Creator/JohnCusack's (very American) character.]] |
| 3 | * PlayingAgainstType: The squeaky clean and wholesome role model Music/HilaryDuff here plays an abrasive, foul-mouthed and sexualized pop star and does so wonderfully. |
| 4 | * ShoutOut: Hauser's target is named Creator/OmarSharif. |
| 5 | * WhatCouldHaveBeen: Serbian filmmaker Srdjan Dragojevic was initially attached to direct this movie. He did an extensive re-write with his writing partner Dimitrije Vojnov. When Dragojevic left the project, this draft of the screenplay was scrapped. The only piece that remained is the [[BrandX imaginary Democracy cigarettes brand]] that had already appeared in his 1998 film ''Film/TheWounds''. |
