Goofs

When the helicopter lands after Greg's fall, the hold of the helicopter is empty. The winch returns for for Glen's attempt, and is visible throughout.

Quotes
[last lines]
B.J. Parswell: A very impressive ending.
Glen Wilson: Just like in the movies.

Crazy credits
Because of the theme of this movie being movie stunts and because of the importance of it to the movie within the movie, the stuntmen are listed in both the opening and closing credits. The opening credits include the following phrase after the primary cast: "Featuring the Stuntmen" before the stuntmen's names are listed.

some good stunts

A stuntman dies falling from a helicopter during filming. The man's brother Glen Wilson (Robert Forster) is joining the crew. On the way, he picks up reporter B.J. Parswell who is writing about the dangers of stunt work. There are more accidents on set or it could be deliberate.

This is most notable for being New Line Cinema's first production after being a distribution company. It starts with a very nice stunt and at least, the stunt work is all very nice. There are a lot of car stunts. It's a good behind-the-scenes representation. Even a simple helicopter hovering looks more dangerous when it is so close. The story isn't much. There are a couple of great actor but in general, the acting isn't that good. Just watch this for the stunt work.
