Trivia:

When Harry Enfield appeared on a UK chat show before the film had been completed, various clips were shown that have changed since making it into the film. These include: When Perry walks down the shopping centre and meets Kevin, Kevin proudly says "Let's wear our coats backward to front". Perry and Kevin then put there coats on backwards and walk around the shopping centre saying "Alright ladies!" to all the girls they pass. All the girls either look at them in amazement or reply "You sad virgins!". There is also no music or narration over the scene. In the film this has changed to Kevin narrating the scene and Perry asking why Kevin is wearing his coat inside out. Kevin now says "I do not conform to conventional clothing standards" and Perry puts his coat on backwards and then they both walk around the shopping centre saying "Respect". And there is now background music of Y:Traxx's MysteryLand. In the scene where Kevin and Perry are mixing in Kevin' bedroom they are playing their own mix of 'Big Girl (All I Wanna Do Is Do It)', however in an earlier clip shown they are playing Fatboy Slim's 'Love Island (4/4 Mix)' (the music that plays over the porn-mag/corner shop scene, a little later) and they are not singing, but Kevin does turn it up when Kevin's dad asks him to turn it down, which is identical to the film. There was also a scene that never made it to the final cut shown where Kevin and Perry are playing their mix on a deserted beach in Ibiza, similar to the scene in the shopping centre, except that no-one is dancing in this scene.

Goofs:

Continuity: When eyeball Paul takes the "All I want to do is do it" record off the record player and Big Baz pushes him off the stage he lands on the floor with the record. But in the next shot we see Kevin put the needle back on the record.

A summary of my comments : Yierk !!!

A friend of mine recommended this movie, and I must say, it was horrible! It may be the worst movie I`ve ever seen. I dont´t know, if the original version contains any esprit in the dialogues, but the german version hasn´t. It was worst trash. Yes, the intention of the author and director, obviously was making a trash movie, but not in this way. I think this movie should be a comedy, but i never smiled during watching it. The so-called jokes, were ... No, better no comment. On the other hand, this movie is that extraordinary bad, you should see it - the only place for this movie is the flop 100 list. 1 of 10 are even too much...sorry!
