Curiosità:

The part of Kicking Wing was originally intended for Evan Adams, who starred in as Thomas Builds-the-Fire in "Smoke Signals" with Adam Beach. To remedy the mistake, Beach's hair was braided and he wore glasses like the Thomas character.

Errori:

Continuity: When Joe goes to the crime scene the camera passes through the police tape in Joe's first person perspective and he talk to the cop about the situation. After that, Joe passes under the tape again to speak with his deceased friend.

Good for some laughs

Before I saw this movie, I was turned off by all the negative reviews and the fact that it was a SNL spinoff. But I bought a used tape from my video store. Instead of war coverage and serious drama, this has become a ray of hope. Make no mistake, it ain't winning any Oscars. But the slapstick is funny, has great co-stars like Joe Don Baker and Chris Walken. It has a good plotline, a search for his family. It's a lot of laughs and fun for plebes at heart. Serious, deep people will be offended, but when we try to make humor serious and deep, we're in trouble.
