- Quotes
Ernie: Did he just call me a black cunt?
Coach: Yes, he did.
Ernie: He can't do that. That's racist.
Coach: But you are black and you are a cunt, Ernie. Those are the facts. I don't think Primetime cares what race you run in.
Ernie: The fact that I'm black has nothing to do with the fact I'm a cunt.
Coach: He didn't say black people were cunts, Ernie. He was being specific to you. One has nothing to do with the other. And I'd go a step further and say it was a term of affection.
Ernie: Primetime's a Gypsy. I wouldn't call him a pikey cunt.
Coach: Why not? He might be very understanding. Only if it comes from a place of love, of course.
- Crazy creditsThe closing credits scroll unencumbered for about one minute. After that, the full uncensored music video for the in-film song "Boxes of Bush" by the Toddlers plays on one side of the screen, with the credits on the other side.

Guy Ritchie has returned to his early themes of violence, chaos, and rock&roll from his early career, and has scored a definite hit, with some fine performances, including a blank-faced one by Charlie Hunnam and an outsized comedy turn by Colin Farrell. Hugh Grant does well as the unwanted on-screen narrator of events, putting them into some order; I am impressed by his lack of a posh accent, event as I wished Ritchie had been able to think of a better way of telling the audience the story.
Even with that cavil, the unceasing action and insanity kept me more than interested throughout.
