    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      Will Ferrell spent a month learning and speaking Spanish with a dialect coach for his role.
    • Goofs
      (At around 6 mins) When Will Ferrell is hiding behind the rock, the background is a two-part screen and was not lined up straight. However this movie has a lot of deliberate mistakes. A very obvious painted background, not lined up straight, is just one of them.
    • Quotes
      • Cameraman: Hello all, I apologize profusely for what you are watching right now. This was actually the most amazing sequence shot over three days with live coyotes, two Bengals tigers and a lion, but for legal reasons we can't release the footage. Did I know that coyotes can't be trained? No. Did I do background checks on the animal handlers? No. Did the tigers get into the cocaine? Yes. Was it a good idea to have coke and other drugs lying around the set? Probably not. Did some crew members get eaten? You bet, but that's the movie biz, right?
      • Cameraman: Look, I'm a good guy. I usually try my best, but I took my eye off the ball on this one. No one is arguing that, but for once, give a guy a break. In fact, do me a favor, don't tell your friends about the poor quality of this sequence. Our secret, okay? Enjoy the rest of the movie. Sincerely, Emilio Sanchez. 2nd Camera Assistant. The director made me write this note
    • Crazy credits
      At the end of the credits, there's a short commercial featuring Dan Haggerty, promoting Haggerty cigarettes.
    • Alternate versions
      According to Amazon/IMDB, this film is available in three versions. IMDB lists two versions, with runtimes of "1h 25m (85 min)" and "1h 24m (84 min) (United States)". The Amazon website adds the third one, with a runtime of "1 h 23 min".
