- GoofsWhen Christy is chasing Ike, she loses her shoes, and leaves them behind. However, after catching and directing Ike to the news building, Christy is seen entering the building putting her shoes back on, though she never returned to retrieve them.
- Quotes
The Governor: He's pardoned.
Roy Ridnitz: You can't do that!
The Governor: Yes I can. He's pardoned, and he's pardoned, and she's pardoned and you're not!
Featured review
I loved it
I loved this movie. I thought Kathleen Turner and Burt Reynolds were great together. Christopher Reeves was perfect. I loved the inventiveness of hiding the criminal in the bottom space of the copier as opposed to the roll top desk used in His gal Friday. I am just sorry that this is not available anywhere. If you liked Burt in this try to find Rent a Cop with Liza Minelli. Forgive spelling error in actors names.
