    • Trivia
      According to Dave Chappelle on Episode dated 3 February 2006 (2006), a scene was written during filming in which his character was to wear a dress while disguised as a prostitute. Chappelle adamantly refused. The writers complained to the producers who then tried to convince Chappelle to do the scene, but he still refused. According to Chappelle, he felt that it was part of a disturbing trend in which African-American men wear dresses in films.
    • Goofs
      When Miles launches the police car into the air, shots from inside the car as it flies show the guardrail of the bridge outside, ruining the illusion that they're in a car flying through the air.
    • Quotes

      Tulley: I'll rip your lips off, and kiss my ass with them shits. I'll rip your tongue out, and lick my balls with it.

    why does everyone say bad things about this movie?
    I heard terrible things that people said about this movie. i am so excited for blue streak 2. it has the potential to be better than the first. But anyway, how could anyone not like this movie. people say this movie is not funny. Well, i partially agree with you. The reason is, THIS MOVIE DID NOT TRY TO BE A HILARIOUS COMEDY!!!!!! Of course it tried to be funny here and there, but this story meant to be an adventurous movie. It had a strong plot. Lawrence is great. Just looking at him makes him more funny, and it also makes it look like all this crap that he usually go's through is really happening to him. For all you people who thought this movie sucked, then you are totally screwed up.
