    • Trivia
      This was the first Steven Seagal film released direct to video (although it did receive a theatrical release in some countries). After Half Past Dead (2002), all of his subsequent movies were released straight to video, although that trend was broken with Machete (2010).
    • Goofs
      Wesley McClaren breaks the stem off an empty wine glass to defend himself, but in previous shots it was full.
    • Quotes

      Dr. Wesley McClaren: [to Holly while entering the reception room at the hospital] Get your homework done and if there are any guys in here no flirting. No dating until you are 40.

    • Alternate versions
      The German FSK16 version is cut in 1 scene by 2 seconds. In the FSK16 version you miss the scene, where Seagal stabs the broken Glas into the head of his enemy.

    A Good film

    I've just seen the Patriot, released directly to Sky television in the UK I was expecting a really bad film, but I enjoyed it.

    Okay it may not be as action packed as his earlier movies but if you watch this film in its own right rather than an unofficial Under Seige part III then i think it stands up very well.

    As to someone's point that the action was just "tagged on" rubbish, I thought it was relevant to the story at that point.
