- GoofsWhen Adrian & his dad are in the 18-wheeler, they can't stop the truck because the brake line broke. 18-wheelers actually use an air brake system, not fluids. As soon as the line opened, the brake system would have depressurized, and the brakes would have engaged.

Featured review
Monk Is Nick Tortelli's Son
When Monk meets his father after a long time, it is sort of touching. HIs father is an over the road trucker who left the family alone after heading off to pick up some Chinese food. I thought that Monk's being was destroyed by this man, but it turns out, Monk was just like this as a child. There are some cool scenes in the truck as they sort things out. Hadaya is a great character, most memorably Nick from "Cheers." He paints a neat contrast with his wild hair and rough features to those of the straight laced Adrian. I was a little annoyed at the ending although I'm sure a lot of people found it cute.
