Trivia Wesley Snipes originally wanted to play the role of Gil Renard (Robert De Niro). See more »
Goofs Many baseball scenes were clearly pieced together from different clips. Near the beginning, the Giants are at bat and the Braves are pitching, but the catcher is wearing a Colorado Rockies uniform. The Giants wear road uniforms at home numerous times. A few overhead shots show a football game at Candlestick Park. One scene shows fans in the seats at Candlestick Park, but the next shot is at Coors Field in Colorado. See more »

Quotes [Gil talks to his son while listening to Mick Jagger in his van]
Gil Renard: I remember when Mick recorded this in '78, we had a wild party afterwards.
Richie Renard: Jason Pelligrino's dad says Mick Jagger's gay.
Gil Renard: [Gil sarcastically replies] Yeah? Well, Jason Pelligrino's dad takes it up the ass.
