Trivia
Although Joseph Gordon-Levitt learned a little bit of Greek, he mainly spoke to the locals to confirm he was speaking the language correctly, asking them to repeat their words to him.

Goofs
At 44:00 Nick Bali is sitting at the bar speaking with Babout Ceesay and he finishes his drink, emptying the glass. Nick never refills his glass, yet at 44:26, while continuing his conversation with Babou, he takes another drink and his glass miraculously has alcohol in it.

Quotes
Nick Bali: Sometimes you use a carrot. Sometimes you use a stick. Sometimes you just lie your ass off.

Crazy credits
During the opening MGM logo, the roar of Leo the Lion, the studio's mascot, is silenced.

Enjoyable and predictable

I don't mind a mystery where I predict the end so long as I enjoy the ride getting there. That's the case for this movie.

It's marketed as noir so, like almost all noir, I predicted the end before I even pressed play. That's the problem with the genre. It has such predictable tropes that you hardly need to know anything about it to guess the ending. And this movie really embraced the classic tropes, which is one reason I liked it, and another reason I found it so predictable.

That said, the setting in Greece, the slow and steady pacing, the enigmatic characters... they made this an enjoyable film to watch. The acting was decent and so was the writing. These days, with the constant churn of streaming content where quantity matters over quality, that means something.
