Trivia
Jim West doesn't use any devices from the television show (sleeve gun, explosive in boot, etc.) except for the universal pass key he kept in the secret pocket under his coat's lapel.

Goofs
Loveless has supposedly planted replicas of world leaders around the world. He doesn't need to further threaten governments with a letter of demands. He just has to issue the word, a la "Order 66." The hard part of replacing leaders with doubles was already done.

Quotes
Dr. Miguelito Loveless, Jr: You killed my father.
James T. West: I don't remember killing Dr. Loveless. Artie, did you...?
Atremus Gordon: No, I didn't...
Dr. Miguelito Loveless, Jr: He died of ulcers!

Flabby heroes explains many things.

I have read comments which say that this TV movie is more a comedy than a serious adventure yarn. Of course it is. The original series, shot ten-fifteen years ago, could afford to be serious, because the overall genesis of the series was action packed sequences, with many stunts and not only from stunt men, but also the lead Robert Conrad, who was ten- fifteen years younger and also in a far far better shape, leaner and could show many more skills than in this TV movie. So, yes, I understand that the producers decided to compensate the lack of action sequences by more humor and comedy. Don't expect any fist fights from Jim West, or only a little. Forget what you saw in the past. But if you are a die hard fan of the show, don't hesitate to see it. It will be painful from time to time but rewarding.
