- QuizWhile some see the Boston Globe article mentioned as a goof, it is not. Actually, there was an initial article written around 2011 by a female journalist for the Globe that exposed the betting groups and the flaw. The HuffPost article was written later and focused more on Jerry and Marge themselves.
- BlooperTyler has his classmates filling in lottery cards each Winfall week, although those cards are reusable and only need to filled in the first time. This is because they are increasing their stake every time - they will always need additional cards for the additional bets.
- Citazioni
Tyler: At Harvard, we learn a little something called binomial distribution. Look it up. Then you'll see why your odds are better when you fill out your own slips. You're welcome.
Jerry: Binomial distribution only considers two factors, not a third which is human error or a fourth, which is the time it takes for you to fill in the tickets. You gain a whooping 32 bucks for every $100,000 you win. You're welcome.

There is not a lot to this movie story wise and I have some sympathy for the reviewers who said they found this boring.
The story is simple and the characters uncomplicated - the small amount of drama that arises is smoothed over to cause more of a hump than a peak.
But saying all that I really liked this.
It is heart warming and non-offensive without being too sickly.
The humour is understated and causes a few chuckles.
The acting and production are all pretty good - but no one is trying for an Oscar here.
In all this was a delightful and relaxing watch.
If you want high excitement or drama then keep jogging - because this is not for you.
But, if you want something that is going to lower your heart rate and make you smile for an hour and a half then don't think twice.
