    • Trivia
      Airport scenes in this film (and Coming to America (1988)) have a call over the PA system for a Mr. Frank Ozkerwitz to pick up a white courtesy telephone. This is a reference to Frank Oz, who makes an appearance in many of John Landis' films, although his real last name is Oznowicz.
    • Goofs
      When "Larry" (Jake Steinfield) is on the boat with the blonde woman and they are taking turns removing their clothes, you hear him unzip his pants in order to remove his shirt. When he removes his pants, you hear him unzip his pants again.
    • Quotes

      [a federal agent brings Diana and Ed to a motel room for a private conference]

      Ed Okin: Are we under arrest, or what?

      Federal Agent: I'd say you fall into the "or what" category.

    • Crazy credits
      Nearly everything is credited in this film. Even the Used-Cars-Salesmen shown in commercials (Cal Worthington, Pete Ellis) and the cast of a b/w-movie (Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein) in Hamid's Apartment are credited

    entertaining escapism

    Plenty to enjoy here in this escapist movie. Goldblum & Pfeiffer are fun in the main roles. Suspend belief and take the exciting journey that Goldblum has with Pfeiffer. Look out for the running joke with many famous directors in cameo roles. Look out for David Bowie and Carl Perkins in a knife fight (is this a metaphor for traditional rock v glam rock?). Although an escape action drama it has plenty of amusing scenes eg. the hoods eating peanuts and breaking candy with their guns.

    And the title track and soundtrack by the worlds best blues guitarist -BB King.
