- Breakaway Pop Hit: The film's original score by Alan Silvestri, specifically its main title, has found extensive use outside the context of the film, being used in movie trailers, TV commercials, as well as other films.
- Completely Different Title: The film was titled Un ratoncito duro de cazarnote in Latin America.
- Dueling Dubs: The film was dubbed into Japanese twice. The first (with Minoru Inaba and Koji Ochiai as Ernie and Lars, respectively) was made for its theatrical and home media releases, and the second (with the late Kenji Utsumi and Yūji Mitsuya voicing the Smuntz brothers) first premiered on the Tokyo Broadcasting System in 2001. Both dubs featured Junpei Takiguchi as Alexander Falko.
- Fake American: British Lee Evans as Lars Smuntz.
- Fake Nationality: Debra Christofferson and Camilla Søeberg as the Belgian hair models Ingrid and Hilde.
- In Memoriam: The film was dedicated to William Hickey who died shortly before filming had completed.
- Missing Trailer Scene:
- Lampshaded in the film's offbeat trailer:
"These are the cha-cha twins.note They are not in Mouse Hunt. Tell your friends."- Also, most of the footage from the first teaser with the mouse doing shadow puppets.
- Posthumous Credit: William Hickey, who plays Posthumous Character Mr. Smuntz, died six months before the movie's release.
- What Could Have Been:
- The film was originally just going to be another Home Alone clone and be set in The Present Day. Gore Verbinski decided to go for a Retro Universe aesthetic, much to the studio's chagrin.
- John Lithgow was the original consideration to play Ernie.
