Fun Stuff

Trivia:
The "campus" shown outside the window of the Dean's office is actually a photograph of buildings in the Walt Disney Studios. This very same backdrop was used during the run of the "Disneyland" television show for scenes shot on the set that served as Walt Disney's "office" when he hosted segments of the program. One oddity is that the building seen in the backdrop was actually the one that housed the real location of Walt's office. more
Goofs:
Continuity: After being spray painted by the kids and driving through the haystack, Arno's face is red, but his hair isn't. Later, in the studio his hair does have some red paint in it. more

Better than the thing but worse than Soldier, 2 July 2000

This isn't such a bad movie with Kurt Russel doing quite a good performance and the plot is extremely original.

But I don't want to spoil the fun go rent it or buy it is surely worth the run for it's money
