Goofs:

Continuity: At the end, Michael picks up the note beside the universal remote. In a back shot we can see through the paper, and we can see the amount and positioning of the writing. In the next shot showing us what is written on the letter, the amount and positioning of what is written on the letter has now changed.

Quotes:

Morty: I am the Angel of Death.
Michael Newman: You bastard.

Must See

I have to say I did not expect to enjoy this movie. My son wanted to see it and finally I gave in & said yes. I thought I was going to have to sit through an hour & a half of mindless comedy. WRONG! This movie did not have a slow moment. There were plenty of laughs for all ages. The 10 yr olds with me didn't get the meaning behind the movie but enjoyed every moment of it. When the movie was over people clapped and were saying that was a great movie. You really must see it! I think a movie that keeps the attention of children and adults is absolutely worth seeing. Although it was full of laughs, keep a napkin handy for a few moments of tears.....
