Fun Stuff

Goofs:
Continuity: After an establishing shot that shows Jack Marsden driving into San Francisco via the Golden Gate Bridge, the close-up of him in the BWM shows he's traveling on a different bridge - one that's constructed of grey metal trusses and girders, rather than the famous red-orange of the Golden Gate Bridge. more
Quotes:
Carter: Do you know that you're acting exactly like Malcolm?
Jack: What's wrong with that?
Carter: Nothin'. It's just... kind of creepy.
Jack: Well, if I'm acting like Malcolm at all, you should be grateful.
Carter: Well, uh, yeh, Malcolm got himself killed.

A fun movie, a little sick, that is the way we like it, 26 January 2000
7/10
Author: Bjørnar Nærland from Sandnes, Norway

Not your ordinary movie, but a good one. Billy Bob is very funny in this movie, the way he talks, what he says etc. I was kind of surprised when i saw it, cause i just thought it was a normal comedy, but it was more than that. It had a very good story, great characters and a good balance.

Favorite part: Probably when Billy Bob is running around in his robe shooting at the rippers
