Trivia

Rob Schneider's character Ula was inspired by Siope Samuela Ula Lomu, a Tongan concierge at a luxury rental property at which Schneider, Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore are regular visitors. Lomu has the same blinded, grayed-over left eye that Schneider's Ula has, but there's not much resemblance beyond that. Says Lomu, "They aren't like some other top Hollywood people. They're really normal." See more »

Goofs

Continuity: After Ula has been stitched up by Henry, he pulls on his shirt. In one shot he has pulled it on over one arm, but in the next shot, he pulls it on again. See more »
