Trivia: The drug lord mansion destroyed by the missile was a real brick-and-mortar residence in Mexico purchased by the filmmakers from a divorcee who had unpleasant memories of the place. The filmmakers bought the mansion and destroyed it; the divorcee kept the land and presumably built a new house after clearing out the rubble.
(more) Goofs: Continuity: In the beginning of the film, two Coast Guardsmen are sent to man the forward gun. As they leave the hatch, the first is wearing an orange jacket while the second wears an orange vest over a dark blue shirt. In the next shot as they move forward along the rail, the man in the orange jacket is now behind the man in the vest. In the next shot as they approach the gun, both are now wearing orange vests over dark blue shirts. Next, we see a tighter shot as the man in the orange jacket mans the gun, followed by a longer shot where both are now back to wearing the vests.
