Revealing mistake: When Nick is running from the men in the park and has his hood off, he is running away and appears to have no head. His torso is visibly longer than a normal person's. The special effect used to make this scene involved a man with an elongated torso to hide his head.

6.8/10. Not a bad Chevy Chase movie. Not as good as the two Fletch movies. Yet there's this charm about it that you can't resist.
Chevy Chase, Daryl Hannah and Sam Neill star in this science fiction film that strains to fit comedic elements while trying to be faithful to the novel upon which it is based. Ground-breaking special effects at the time ably make Chevy Chase seem invisible-including during his interactions with food, smoking and even his co-stars. Unfortunately, the film becomes a long chase and fails to find its stride-the jokes are flat, the situations forced, and there's few surprises.

Nick Halloway: I want my molecules back.
Question: Even if David captured Nick, what makes him think that Nick would ever work for him? It's been established that he doesn't have a family and doesn't really have any friends, so it's not like David could threaten him into compliance.
Answer: He didn't need him, just his body to experiment on. If the circumstances could be duplicated, he could create an army of intelligence agents.
