Trivia:
The town in 'Trapped In Paradise' had to appear virtually buried in snow so that the characters were "trapped" and couldn't leave. So filmmakers supplemented real snow with 75,000 pounds of custom-made, biodegradable potato flakes from Idaho. moreGoofs:
Continuity: When Peyser's car hits the tree, only one man can be clearly seen in the car, although there should be four people in it. moreQuotes:
[singing to himself in the car]Alvin Firpo: You do what you do and I do what I do... you do what you do and I do what I do, I'm Alvin, and you're Bill.
[Bill walks by and kicks the car, annoyed]

This was a surprisingly funny movie. Having Cage, Lovitz and Carvey in the same movie is hilarious. Carvey has to have the best role as a kleptomaniac. Watching the movie just to see Dana in this role is worth it all by itself. If you liked City Slickers, you would probably like Trapped in Paradise. 8 Stars.
