Goofs:
Factual errors: When Mr Jimmy arrives in the helicopter he shouts "Australian Police". Each state has its own separate police force, "Northern Territory Police", and there is also the "Federal Police", not known as "Australian Police".

I went only because I had time to waste today before seeing "The Recruit" my comments on that film appear elsewhere.So I did not expect much. There were thousands of young children there. Well, there were lots of kids there. I enjoyed the movie. It was silly and of course totally preposterous but thats exactly why I liked it. The characters were enjoyable and some hilarious moments. Go see it but don't expect an academy award.
