Brian Flanagan (Tom Cruise ) learns the value of true lurve, and how to juggle bottles, in this predictable, flashy fluff, set mainly around New York.

The East Side bar where Brian and Doug Coughlin (Bryan Brown) practise their synchronised juggling was TGI Fridayís (it has since closed down) which stood at 1152 First Avenue at 63rd Street (though the interiors filmed at a recreation of the bar in a Canadian studio). The TGI bar is now the Sherlock Holmes-themed Baker Street Pub, 1152 First Avenue (tel: 212.688.9663).

Flanaganís success takes him to Jamaica, where the beach bar scenes were staged at Dragon Bay Beach, Port Antonio, where the bar is now called ‚ surprise ‚ Cruise Bar. The waterfall is Reach Falls, on the Drivers River, inland from Manchioneal on the northern coast.

Most of the film, however, was shot in Toronto, at Soupyís Tavern (now Stoopyís), 376 Dundas East; Leeís Palace, 529 Bloor West; the Old Don Jail; Knox College at the University of Toronto; Casa Loma; Canada Life Building; the Beardmore Building and St Johnís Norway Cemetery.
