    • Trivia
      The three kids who run between Jimmy and Oz when they are standing next to the flower cart are Bruce Willis's three daughters, Tallulah Willis, Scout Willis, and Rumer Willis.
    • Goofs
      Dental records cannot be faked. It isn't just a matter of matching up dental work on a couple of Panellipse films (as shown in the movie). There is also everyone's unique bone density/structure, unique root structure, individual tooth sizes and variations in shape to be considered. These are things that cannot be altered. Moreover, those are the things that they look at when identifying someone from dental records.
    • Quotes

      Jimmy: It's not important how many people I've killed. What's important is how I get along with the people who are still alive.

    • Crazy credits
      Leanna McOemmecon is listed in the credits as the stand-in for Rosanna Arquette. It should read "Leanna McLennan.": "I worked as a stand in for Rosanna Arquette while filming in Quebec. The correct spelling of my name is Leanna McLennan. Each day, my name would be spelled differently on the call sheet--McLean, etc. Each day, I would correct it. In the end, I am listed in the credits as Leanna McOemmecon, which I find quite amusing."
    • Alternate versions
      On most TV broadcasts, including TBS, Jill, although naked, has her left arm covering her breasts.

    Effective Screwball Comedy

    "The Whole Nine Yards" is surprisingly effective screwball comedy that reminds me of such classics as "Bringing Up Baby" though with way higher amoral body count.

    At first the actors seem to be each in a parallel movie, with Matthew Perry doing physical slapstick comedy, Bruce Willis deadly serious, Rosanna Arquette just nasty, Amanda Peet being her "Jack and Jill" character (one of my TV guilty pleasures) and Natasha being like a super-model.

    Then something clicks in and it just gets funny and I couldn't help laughing and laughing.

    I hope Michael Clarke Duncan gets to keep those fancy suits, because it must be hard to get ones to fit him; with "Green Mile," this performance impressively shows his range.
