            • Trivia
              Unofficially, this movie was heavily influenced by the Belgian cartoonist, Hergé and the Tintin adventures which he authored. Many specific plot points can be traced directly to specific Tintin books, and the general pacing of the story and certain visuals are all clearly inspired by Hergé's work.
            • Goofs
              When De Castro receives Agnes, Catalan and Dufourquet in the helicopter, this building isn't in Brazilia (as set); it's the Museum of Modern Art (MAM), in Rio.

            The French template for Raiders of the Lost Ark.
            If you thought Speilberg was clever for creating Indiana Jones, you should check out this movie and see where the idea came from. With too many parallels to be coincidence, this film is another example of how Hollywood steals from European films and no one in the U.S. knows any better because they never leave their backyard. Oh, and it has really cool low budget action scenes; particularly a pursuit through a construction site that is about as glamorous as getting chased by two Brazilian thugs can be.
