Trivialidades:

When Rollie calls young Chris on the phone, the movie Chris is watching on television is F/X (1986), the prelude to this movie.

Goofs:

Audio/visual unsynchronized: When Rollie is telling Mike about his hidden camera, while he's talking he's reflected in a mirror and his mouth clearly isn't moving.

Quotes:

Leo McCarthy: Rollie, tell me those aren't the real medallions.
Rollie Tyler: Yeah, I swithced 'em.
Leo McCarthy: Rollie you dumb bastard, the mob wasn't stealing them, they were returning them, to the Vatican.
Rollie Tyler: Nobody told me.

A waste of precious time!

Not even worth a talk.This comment is only meant as a warning to people who value their free time.The movie has a ridiculous script, with countless points where it's obvious that the course of action was decided on the set(for example the chase in the supermarket where Rollie seems not to know what he's doing, and why), and a whole series of ridiculous and unnecessary fx-tricks display(like the can-explosion in the supermarket), meant only to deceive the audience into not thinking about the numerous flaws(bad camera-work and even worse directing and pyrotechnics).Basically it's an attempt to sell the characters form the original(which is not a great, but a quite watchable movie) in the same packing, just like a remake, but without any story.

A waste of Brian Brown's, Brian Dennehy's (both decent actors), but most of all a waste of our free time.
