    • Trivia
      According to gossip, the main actors were unhappy on set. Kristin Chenoweth was still coping with her split from Aaron Sorkin, Danny DeVito flew in to film his scenes rather than interact with anyone, and Matthew Broderick could be found on set shaking his head in disbelief, repeatedly stating, "I've hit rock bottom." Kristin Davis told her that she should have her eggs frozen.
    • Goofs
      When Steve takes out Buddy's power with the snowball, all the lights go out. There should still be *some* lights, as Buddy is stealing part of his power via extension cord from Steve's house.
    • Quotes

      Mrs. Ryor: [receiving an eye exam from Dr. Finch] I don't need glasses!

      Steve Finch: You need binoculars, but we're settling for glasses.

    • Crazy credits
      Christmas lights are used throughout the entire end credit roll.

    A comedy with no humor...
    ...unless you're maybe 8 years old, in which case the sight gags might keep you amused. For a while. Matthew Broderick should be ashamed for getting himself mixed up in a mess like this. He's good at playing straight men, but his deadpan delivery of this lousy script will have you checking your watch frequently. It's a particular waste of his comedy talent, which is well-documented. Danny DeVito once again demonstrates that his career peaked about 10 years ago as he mopes his way through the story. Just when you think you've got his character figured out, he does something that takes you back to square one. Is he a nice guy? A scumbag? A criminal? It could be any of those things, or none. God knows the ending doesn't give you any ultimate idea. I don't really know, and I don't really care. Avoid this film unless you have nothing better to do at the mall except wait for a swollen molar to subside. It's about the only thing that seems less appealing than sitting through this turkey.
