Histoire
Le saviez-vous
- AnecdotesThe mousetraps scene was completed without any digital effects. Over 800 mousetraps were set individually and rigged with wires under the floor. It took several takes, so each trap had to be reset, baited, and wired one at a time.
- GaffesIn the scene when Lars is alone inside the factory, you can clearly see an arm behind the big fan pulling the thread from his jacket. You can even see a watch on the arm.

Lars Smuntz: Well, these are all kittens. We were hoping for an older cat, one with... experience?
Maury: That's a switch. Most people like the cute little ones. Experience with what?
Ernie Smuntz: Mouse-hunting.
Maury: Ah, all cats are good mousers.
Ernie Smuntz: Yes, but you see, we have huge rats, the size of sumo wrestlers, and lots of 'em, so we really need a ferocious feline, preferably one with a history of mental illness. I'm talkin'... one mean pussy.
Lars Smuntz: Yeah! A vicious cat, difficult to love. You have any of those, knocking about your cages?
Maury: Funny you should ask. I had given up hope of anyone wanting him. We were about to gas him again.
Lars Smuntz, Ernie Smuntz: Again?

Right in the beginning the fun starts. The brothers argue about the color of Lee/Lars Smuntz's funeral clothes. As they walk down the stairs of the church the handle breaks off the casket, their father's body goes flying out of the casket, into the air and down a open manhole in the street.
The characters are all funny. The animation is amazing. Nathan/Ernie Smuntz has a restaurant and serves dinner to the Mayor who is very fat who is with his family. His daughters see a cockroach without a head running across the table. The Mayor realizes he has eaten the head. He falls back in the chair and passes out. The movement of this giant roach running on the table is so hysterical.
The sons inherit a house from their father who was kind of weird. No one lives in the house and when the men go there they find a mouse who is like the owner of the house. He crawls in all the spaces and takes what he wants and just takes over and causes problems for the sons. The animation of what the mouse does and what they do to catch it is so funny.
The sons end up hiring a man to trap the mouse. The exterminator is played by Christopher Walkens. He is really good in this movie. He has his own equipment and is experienced. He talks loud so the mouse will hear what he has to say because he believes the mouse understands him from his experience and he is trying to fool it. More laughter.
The mouse is smarter than everyone this is a great funny movie to see.
