Nicolas Cage: I'm sure glad I get to go home today. I hope that hitching a ride on this plane full of the worst convicts imaginable doesn't turn out to be a very poor choice.

Nicolas Cage: My secret's out!! I am an honorable man!! We're landing this plane in Las Vegas for some reason!

I feel like this movie came out around the time when Las Vegas was obviously trying to drum up more tourism and pretty much every single movie and TV show was prominently displaying the attractive landscape of Las Vegas.
I like how the actors names could easily be posted over their heads on the poster but are not.
