Goofs:
Factual errors: The FBI helicopter, a private jet, and a medevac helicopter are all shown with registration numbers, tail numbers, beginning with the letter Z followed by four numbers. All aircraft registered in the United States, as an FBI helicopter should be, have tail numbers beginning with the letter N. Further, there are no countries whose tail number format begins with the letter Z followed by four numbers. more

There is NOTHING bad about this movie!, 17 August 2006
10/10
Author: jawschlech from United States

If you got at all caught up in the hype of this movie, even so much as chuckled at any of the viral videos inspired by its epic title (or at the title itself!), you will LOVE this film. It was everything I had hoped for and more. Sex, drugs, violence, gore, guns, other unlikely weapons, deadly reptiles, predictable plot, occasionally questionable acting, tacky CGI, factual inaccuracies, physical impossibilities... I mean, this movie has something for anyone with a pulse.

It has achieved the perfect balance: it is bad enough to be funny, but good enough to be great. If you ever find yourself less than thrilled to be watching it, all you have to do is remember the title and suddenly it's amazing! Really the best thing about it (other than the concept/title) is that, on the whole, it's not a terribly made film. Plus, at least for the screening at our theater, the whole audience was completely into it. People were cheering and clapping and everyone was psyched just to be there.

If you think the idea is lame, if you don't "get it" and don't want to, well, I don't know what to tell you. You've already made up your mind what you're going to think about this movie. But even if you've never heard of it, approach with an open mind and you won't be disappointed. GO SEE IT!
