• Critic Proof: Though critics hated it and people found the premise ridiculous, the film still grossed $70 million domestically.
• Hilarious in Hindsight: WB would later make Suicide Squad, which also heavily advertised a certain character - but the Joker appeared in very little of the film.
• Misaimed Marketing: The trailers and even the title heavily shows the kangaroo, but he only appears in 5 minutes of the film because...
• Non Sequitur Scene: The scene with the talking kangaroo came from a hallucination sequence that was shot just for the trailer, once the studio became afraid that they'd have a bomb on their hands.
• Uncertain Audience: The film can't decide if it was a mob comedy for adults or a kiddy animal flick.
• What Do You Mean It's for Kids?: While it has a cute kangaroo, there are innuendos, profanity and gangster violence.
