Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe film was rushed to video, due to bad reviews and protests by blind people and their advocates at theaters across the U.S. Disney attempted to deflect by including a disclaimer at the end that argued that the film was not intended as an accurate portrayal of the visually-impaired, which critic Roger Ebert sarcastically proclaimed was the only funny moment in the whole movie. The British Federation of the Blind petitioned the British Board of Film Classification to ban the movie in the UK, claiming it would "bring ridicule upon blind, and partially sighted people".
- GoofsIn the first scene with the ruby, Luanne says "Exquisite!" to which Morgan responds "Actually, it's corundum, which is an aluminum oxide." Luanne says "'Exquisite' is an adjective, not an element." Corundum isn't an element either - it's a compound.

Agent Chuck Stupak: [Discussing a jewel thief] No one has ever been able to finger her.
- Crazy credits(Closing statement) The preceding film is not intended as an accurate portrayal of blindness or poor eyesight. Blindness or poor eyesight does not imply an impairment of one's ability to be employed in a wide range of jobs, raise a family, perform important civic duties or engage in a well-rounded life. All people with disabilities deserve a fair chance to live and work without being impeded by prejudice.

Featured review
Ha! Ha! Ha! I laughed all the movie. Leslie Nielsen knows how to make "stupid" movies. It's not the comedy of the year but it's great for family and friends who want to take a break from BIG BANG movies.
