[2] When Vladimiro's (Jerry Calà) chicken is stolen while he is in the Dominican Republic for a cockfight, he immediately begins trying to get it back.

[9] Calà had previously announced his debut as director with a completely different project, a biographical drama film about Umberto Bossi and Lega Nord, Il Longobardo, that was eventually abandoned.

[5] The film mainly parodies Jurassic Park but also references many outer films and cultural icons in some gags, such as The Addams Family, Home Alone, The Deer Hunter, Full Metal Jacket, Sister Act, Pretty Woman, Hot Shots!, Il Postino: The Postman and Edward Scissorhands.

[11] The film was released in Turkey on 5 April 1996 as Piliç parki and subsequently in Spain as Pollo jurásico.

[14] According to author Massimo Bertarelli, the film is just made of "exasperating drollery and depressing sloppiness".
