Trivia

Jeff Goldblum and Geena Davis never met until this film. See more »

Goofs

Incorrectly regarded as goofs: The plane shown taking off in the opening credits is not the same type of plane shown flying in the air, and the plane shown landing is yet a third type. This could be a goof, but in the 1980s it likely would have been a connecting flight. See more »
