Trivia While promoting the movie on Live with Regis and Kathy Lee (1988), Danny DeVito said that Jimmy Hoffa, Jr. had visited the set one day and that when Jack Nicholson emerged from the make-up trailer made up as Hoffa himself, Jimmy, Jr. wept and said "That's my dad". At the time the movie was released, 1992, Jimmy, Jr. had not seen his father in seventeen years (Hoffa, Sr. disappeared in 1975). See more »
Goofs When Jimmy and Billy torch bomb the building, they create a blast so intense, it blows out the passenger side window on Bobby's truck. Yet in the following shots, the window goes from being intact, to being shattered. See more »

Quotes Jimmy Hoffa: If a guy's close to you, you can't slight 'im. You can't slight that guy. A real grievance can be resolved; differences can be resolved. But an imaginary hurt, a slight - that motherfucker gonna hate you 'til the day he dies.
