    • Trivia
      There's a real "Surf Ninjas" game for the Sega Game Gear, but it's completely different from what Adam was playing. However, the game Adam plays in the movie is also real. It was developed by Sega exclusively for use in the movie only.
    • Goofs
      Adam is playing the "Surf Ninjas" game on game gear but when they show the game gear, sometimes no game is in it or "Columns" another game is visible in the cartridge slot.
    • Quotes

      Johnny: How did you get out of those hand cuffs?

      Lt. Spence: I had a key.

      Johnny: Where, we searched you?

      Lt. Spence: I swallowed it last Tuesday.

      Adam: How'd you know you were gonna need it?

      Lt. Spence: I swallow it every Tuesday.

    Patheticly Funny
    This movie I saw on Showtime this year, and laughed heavily at its stupidity. The whole premise of the movie is absurd, and the commercial tie-ins are very low-brow. But regardless, this movie is worth watching because it is so patheticly funny. The stupid jokes,the silly stereotypical characters, and the horrible music are enough to make a non-overzealous movie fan laugh out loud.
