Trivia:
The first American film by Franco Amurri, the Italian director who worked as one of Federico Fellini's assistants on _City of Women (1980)_. more
Goofs:
Factual errors: When Buckner and Walker board the train (in Oregon), Stark asks Sheriff Hightower where the next stop is. Hightower replies, "It's across the border into Canada." Washington State lies between Oregon and Canada; it's very unlikely that the train would bypass Washington state. more
Quotes:
Huey Walker: If you guys ever thought about brightening this place up, like, you know, a few plants, some flowers, you'd attract a better class of criminal. And man, if I can say one other thing, the room service sucks, and so do some of the customers. more

Way too underrated..., 4 February 2007
9/10
Author: TimDbase from Netherlands

In my opinion this is the sequel to Easy Rider, perfect mirror to the time it's made. I believe this movie carries a very important message, and it is so funny... The best thing i can say is watch it! It's great. I nearly cried towards the end. Dennis Hopper is hilarious.

Huey Walker: Don't worry, kid. I won't give you no excuse to blow me away. John Buckner: That's good. Huey Walker: Hey, do you want to watch me pi$$ now?

"Does it tell you when to pi$$ too?" "The 90's are going to make the 60's look like the 50's." "Know thy enemy."

hilarious and catching.
