    • Trivia
      Adam Sandler plays the character Max Kessler. A real-life New York City accountant named Max Kessler bears a strong resemblance to Sandler and had met with one of his associates. The two would later meet for the first time after Kessler accepted an invitation to the film's premiere.
    • Goofs
      As Heather approaches the table where Max, Charlie and Mrs. Kessler are sitting, we see a lightning strike. As the flicker of light briefly comes back, we see Heather jump to another position in the room.
    • Quotes

      Charlie: How could you have not researched these guys?

      Max: I researched them. Dr. Ron, a very successful doctor, with an impeccable record, who unfortunately got two bullets to the head.

      Charlie: You said he died of natural causes!

      Max: You naturally die if you get two bullets to the head.

    • Crazy credits
      When the credits start to roll, it turns out that the name of the fictional pharmaceutical company Trojgaard mentioned in the movie was taken from one of the film's co-producers, Pernille Trojgaard (who is also an actress, but not in this movie).

    Its Adam Sandler at his best.

    Adam sandler....... you either love his work or hate it.

    For me it is a relief like on mid summers afternoon; which is provided by a cool beer. Life in itself is too short, and this movie delivers that message with a punch. you looking for shakes'perian drama, or Quentin Tarantino's mystical direction, you are missing the message. It's Adam Sandler at his best after the Growns up's.

    It's classic in terms of his way of doing movies. i will not spoil it with details but only a suggestion watch when you are burned out and have some time with a cold one.

    Its the most irrational, fun, adult entertainment to bring your spirits up.

    Peace out brothers.
