1* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic:
2** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v66ckBHEu-A Jerry Goldsmith's score]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SUMslh8Kvdw is so sweet,]] though it borrows heavily from his own ''Film/{{Explorers}}'' from two years earlier.
3** "Cupid" and "Twistin' The Night Away" by Music/SamCooke. Rod Stewart's cover of the latter song, which played over the end credits. Then there's Music/TheSpinners' "Cupid".
4* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: The dancing scene to "Twistin' the Night Away" in Tuck's apartment is this, ignoring the seriousness to the situation (and giving the audience a break).
5* DemographicallyInappropriateHumor: Mr. Igoe puts on a new hand attachment while on a hot date with Dr. Canker. We hear it vibrating off-screen. Dr. Canker looks pleased to see it.
6* SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments:
7** Tuck crying TearsOfJoy when he finds out Lydia's pregnant.
8** Tuck's return to full size, him embracing Lydia after the ordeal and hugging Jack like a friend. In the course of a 24 hour period, he made a new friend he wouldn't have met through any other circumstances and has reconnected with his ex-girlfriend and knowing he's about to become a father.
9* HilariousInHindsight: This wouldn't be the last time Vernon Wells [[Series/PowerRangersTimeForce has a bad experience caused by lab scientists]].
10* OneSceneWonder: Gravel-voiced, longtime character actress Kathleen Freeman steals the show as the Dream Lady.
11* StrawmanHasAPoint: The BigBad actually [[JustBetweenYouAndMe monologues to Jack]] that miniaturization would revolutionize the world, making whoever developed it fantastically rich - one word: {{Nanomachines}}. And the government is only developing it to fit schmutzes like Jack with sensory-jacking surveillance equipment. ReedRichardsIsUseless at its best/worst. He's not UnintentionallySympathetic because he works for violent criminals and dictators, but he's not wrong either.
12* SuspiciouslySimilarSong: The Cowboy's theme is suspiciously like an Ennio Morricone SpaghettiWestern score.
13* SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome: The FX still holds up today, especially the heart valve scene.[[note]]The obvious matte FX don't, though.[[/note]] The film actually won an Academy Award for Special Effects, [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome and has been the only film from Dante's filmography to win an Oscar]].
