The phony license plate on the black Lincoln the villains drive is found to be registered under the name DiMucci. This is most likely a nod to Dion DiMucci who originally sang The Wanderer, which Ray Sharkey sings in one scene.

"Half" a good time and see this film, its darling!

Nick (Burt Reynolds) is a cop who has been around the block a few times. He is a grouchy old coot to boot. Devon (Norman Golden II) is a young neighborhood lad who loves police shows and dreams of being a patrolman. One day, he witnesses a murder in a warehouse and goes to the precinct to tell the officers what he saw. However, he won't sing unless they make him a junior cop in the process. Wanting the information the little boy has to offer, they agree to put him "on the force". After that, they pair him with Nick to investigate and solve the crime Devon observed. Nick, however, hates having the youngster as a partner, even though Devon often has ideas that work, such as his strategy for getting a peace-disturbing, quarreling couple to calm themselves. But, can Nick and Devon figure out the warehouse murder without taking a few bullets themselves? I had a great time with this much-maligned movie. Reynolds is a joy, for his dry wit and facial expressions are on constant display. Young Golden, too, is talented and humorous, charming the audience in every scene. In addition, for those who like chase scenes, shoot-em-up action, and dimwitted bad guys, this one has those in abundance, also. In short, pay no attention to the harsh criticism that this flick has received and try it yourself. I believe you will "half" a very good time with Burt and his half-pint partner.
