- TriviaBrad puts on a Richard Nixon mask during the Prague bank robbery. This is a nod to the 1991 heist movie, Point Break, starting Keanu Reeves and Patrick Swazye.
- GoofsA main plot point in this film involves agents from INTERPOL attempting to apprehend the thieves and getting thwarted while actively pursuing them. In point of fact, INTERPOL is not a law enforcement agency and none of their agents have any law enforcement or arrest powers. INTERPOL acts as a liaison between law enforcement across member nations and offers databases, technical and operational support to and between member nations.

Korina: I've been reconning their systems for months to test their capabilities.
Dieter: Reconning? What does this mean, reconning?
Korina: You know, reconning. Fucking reconning. I've been reconning them. Now get out of my asshole, Mr. I Don't Want To Make Out.
Dieter: Ah, okay. Got it. Okay, reconning.

One of the criticisms I imagine is that this movie will be called cliched due to its "cliche" moments. However, this movie isn't trying to be super serious and accidently putting in cliches while trying to make a 10/10 film. This film does it in a self aware funny manner. Another nice little feature of this movie was learning about classic music and german mythology via "cliche" exposition. But I enjoyed the movie all the more for it. I loved this movie being all breaking into safes and Interpol being in pursuit. Rather than Zombies. But only by a little. So 8 out of 10. If you liked the original movie watch this one and if you haven't watched either. Watch the original movie first, then this one if possible.
