Corrected entry: The timer in one of the scenes is different from the time the announcer says it is.
Spy Hard (1996)
1 corrected entry
Directed by: Rick Friedberg
Starring: Leslie Nielsen, Charles Durning, Marcia Gay Harden, Nicollette Sheridan
Revealing mistake: When WD-40 is parachuting onto the island at the beginning, he throws a match through his parachute. As the shot changes, you can clearly see the smoke canister that was producing the effect of the parachute being on fire, swinging from beneath the canopy.
Coleman: Good God! He must be stopped.
General Rancor: Dick Steele couldn't stop me fifteen years ago, and all the Dicks you got won't stop me now.
Coleman: Well, apparently he hasn't, uh, seen the size of some of our newer members.
Trivia: The church that Dick follows the henchman into is called, Our Lady Who Never Had The Pickle. This was originally going to be the name of the hospital that Nordberg was taken to in the movie The Naked Gun.
Question: In the wrestling scene, Leslie Nielsen tags Hulk Hogan who ultimately tags another lady in a red dress. The actress appears to be Joyce Brothers. Is her presence a spoof or am I missing something else here?
Chosen answer: The lady in the red dress is definitely Dr. Joyce Brothers. Her presence is not a spoof of anything. Just another way to add humor to an already humorous movie.
Correction: This is a Leslie Nielsen movie. These sort of intentional, visual "disconnects" exist throught the entire movie. There are numerous instances where what is being said does not match with what we see in the background. It is a trade mark of the slapstick comedy Leslie Nielsen and his movies are well known for.
