Starcat: Don't you ever call me that!
Florence "Chicklet" Forrest: What, "Mr Perfect"?
Starcat: You don't know what it's like, having everybody think you're the golden boy - perfectly smart, perfectly athletic. You can't imagine the pressure.
Florence "Chicklet" Forrest: And I thought all those people starving in India had it bad.

Trivia
When they group discovers the girl in the wheelchair has been murdered, originally Monica Stark was suppose to be talking to Kanaka, but the actor playing Kanaka was off shooting The Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas. The scene had to be re-written due to the actors absence. See more »Quotes

This film really grew on me. It's got great actors (namely Nicholas Brendan and Lauren Ambrose), a great throwback sense of style, and very clever dialogue. I can't tell if this film is intentionally hysterical (I think it is, but some parts...it's hard to tell.) I also really liked some of the characters, including police"woman" Monica Stark. All in all, a light-hearted summer movie, perfect for a few good laughs.
