Trivia

Val Kilmer has said that the hardest part of making the film was "looking for ways to maximize the vocal options" due to his cancer recovery. He eleborated further, saying "My vocal cords and everything is perfect in my mouth except my swollen tongue. And that was challenging."

Incoherent mess

This movie tried, but it failed.

It seems like they wanted to re-write part of the ending so they just re-dubbed different dialogue over the old lines, it's glaringly obvious.

The "twist" ending is so ridiculous, you'll be rolling your eyes for the last 15 minutes and it's just been done so many times, and much better elsewhere.

Don't bother. The movie starts out good, then is a boring hour with a ridiculous ending.

I'm easily entertained, but this movie is a mess.
