Line 9:
=== Tropes in this film: ===
 
* [[Armor -Piercing Question]]: "Why aren't you popular with the Chicago Police Department?"
* [[Authentication By Newspaper]]
* [[Bavarian Fire Drill]]: Walsh and Mardukas pretend to be FBI agents so they can "confiscate some counterfeit money".
Line 15:
* [[Bowdlerise]]: Grodin's rant about plane crashes was heavily edited for airplane showings of the movie, for obvious reasons.
* [[Chained Heat]]
* [[Cluster F -Bomb]]: Jack's a pottymouth. So are Eddie Moscone and Jimmy Serrano.
* [[The Consigliere]]: Serrano's advisor Sidney, whose advice Jimmy frequently disregards.
* [[Cuffs Off Rub Wrists]]: Apparently Grodin suffered permanent scarring from the handcuffs.
Line 36:
* [[Police Are Useless]]: Man, let's hope the FBI isn't as incompetent as it comes off in this movie.
* [[Race Against the Clock]]
* [[Recycled: theThe Series]]: as a series of [[Made for TV Movie|Made For TV Movies]] for the [[Action Pack]], starring Christopher McDonald in the DeNiro role and various guest-stars as the Grodin-equivalents.
* [[The Rival]]: Marvin to Jack.
* [[Road Movie]]
