- TriviaThe chase sequence in Chicago was codenamed "Fifty-Two Part" by the film's crew. It was the longest sequence in the script and involving some of the film's most difficult stunts. To complete it, Mila Kunis and Channing Tatum had to film every day for six months.
- GoofsWhen Jupiter notices Caine's wound, she takes a sanitary pad from the glove compartment of the car. She puts the non-absorbent side on the wound by mistake, which would be useless for wound care.
- Quotes
Balem Abrasax: My mother made me understand that every human society is a pyramid and that some lives will always matter more than others. It is better to accept this than to pretend it isn't true.

Featured review
This is no Shakespeare, but good dumb entertainment
I don't know what the people who hated this film expected. Haven't they seen the trailer? It's just the extended version of that. And unlike most of the films right now, the action keeps up the pace throughout the movie, it doesn't just have a few cool scenes that end up in the trailer.
Is it a smart story that makes one philosophical question the meaning of life? No. It is a puerile story of intergalactic feudal royalty of human origins that controls the entire universe, of girls that wash toilets and find out they are princesses, of loyal knights that love and protect them and of evil men with no scruples that try to kill them. Yes, it is a fairy tale. But a visually stunning one, with beautiful actors and amazing special effects.
Bottom line: forever remembered as the movie in which Sean Bean doesn't die, Jupiter Ascending is a science fiction upgrade of a standard princesses and knights fairy tale. Once one realizes that, one can fully enjoy the good special effects and the fast pace. It lasts for two hours, but it never lets up the action.
