Alan Thicke later said the film was so bad not even Jim Carrey was funny in it.
As a testament to the film's overwhelmingly negative reception, there's a mini subplot where Jim Carrey's character agrees to help a girl confess her love for her boss. Together they ask the hotel staff for a white sheet and a rope so Jim Carrey can dress up like an Arab and approach the boss character in disguise. Later, the girl's boss thanks Jim Carrey for helping the girl confess her love, but the Arab scene was never shown at all, and there's no explanation of what happened. The scene was probably filmed but may have been cut due to being too ridiculous or offensive.
Almost half of the movie was filmed on Gold Peak in Vail, Colorado.
Despite being the top-billed actor, Jim Carrey has about 15 minutes of screentime. Most of the film is people skiing and musicians performing different songs.
Alan Thicke and Jim Carrey's characters are basically presented as 2 young guys of about the same age, but in reality Alan Thicke was 15 years older than Jim Carrey.
