    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Omega watches, worried about an association with a far right terrorist organisation took the film studio to court in a last ditch attempt to block the films release. Italian sports brand Kappa even stepped in with the offer of sponsorship to take the naming rights, contracts had been signed and 'Kappa Syndrome' wrap party t-shirts had even been ordered when Omega watches dropped their case. Omega watches CEO Tim E. Phlies, in an interview with Empire magazine would later laugh off the lawsuit when it was put to him that the total box office sales for the film came to less than the cost of one of his watches.

      In the car chase scene, Terry's car has both front lights working in the first shot. In the next shot, only his right light is working. Then both lights work again, then only the right light. Coming out of the tunnel, both lights are turned on again. Taking a left just after exiting the tunnel, only the right light is working.

    Hopeless Nazis
    The bad guys in this film are a gang of stupid neonazis, who of course can't shoot straight when it comes to killing the heroes, a couple of Vietnam veterans (What a novel idea!) Sadly, you can't take them seriously , and you know from the start that the cute smart alec teenage girl is going to get the better of them.

    Very corny indeed.
