Synopsis

When the police learn that a mob hitman has moved in next door to the Robbersons, they establish a stakeout at the Robbersons' home. Jake Stone, a hard-nosed and tough investigator, and his younger partner, Tony Moore, are assigned to the operation. The mission now becomes a test of whether Jake can endure long enough to apprehend the criminals. The Robbersons, eager to assist, inadvertently make the situation more difficult for Jake.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 23

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.

Box Office

1994 · Box office

📉 Underperformed — grossed 0.6× its budget

Why 2.5×?

Cinemas keep roughly half of every ticket sold, and a wide release’s marketing often costs about as much again as the film — so a movie needs to gross around 2.5× its production budget just to break even theatrically. It’s a rule of thumb, not the studio’s ledger (home video and streaming come later).
