    • Trivia
      Adam Sandler plays the character Max Kessler. A real-life New York City accountant named Max Kessler bears a strong resemblance to Sandler and had met with one of his associates. The two would later meet for the first time after Kessler accepted an invitation to the film's premiere.
    • Goofs
      As Heather approaches the table where Max, Charlie and Mrs. Kessler are sitting, we see a lightning strike. As the flicker of light briefly comes back, we see Heather jump to another position in the room.
    • Quotes

      Charlie: How could you have not researched these guys?

      Max: I researched them. Dr. Ron, a very successful doctor, with an impeccable record, who unfortunately got two bullets to the head.

      Charlie: You said he died of natural causes!

      Max: You naturally die if you get two bullets to the head.

    • Crazy credits
      When the credits start to roll, it turns out that the name of the fictional pharmaceutical company Trojgaard mentioned in the movie was taken from one of the film's co-producers, Pernille Trojgaard (who is also an actress, but not in this movie).

    Fun and Entertaining, Enough anyways.

    It was quite fun and entertaining, and the first half hour was close to fantastic. Then it kinda went down a few notches, started relying on crude humor and vulgar stuff too much. Then it became not even believable at all. Some humor from silly stuff is okay, but this became just a bit too silly. If Sandler would stick to a bit of drama and comedy that seemed more realistic he could hit one out of the park.

    As it is, there are glimpses of great, but then equaled out by silly vulgar stuff, that seems more for 13 year old's. Maybe he is not able to make great movies. Well, not great, not horrible, funny at times at least
