Line 20:

* [[Downer Ending]]: Despite the film attempting to make it [[Bittersweet Ending|appear a bittersweet]], on reflection {{spoiler|Matt}} is the only character to end the film happy. After all, {{spoiler|Pete’s dead, most of the \GSE are in prison, Shannon has been forced to leave her husband, and Steve is critically injured in hospital and has lost his wife, son and brother in one fell swoop.}}

* [[The Dragon]]: Mark to Tommy Hatcher, and back in the day, {{spoiler|Terry}} to The Major.

* [[Family Unfriendly Aesop]]: The film tries to convey the message that you need to know when to stand your ground and when to run away. Perhaps it does, but every bit as apparent is that violence is frequently an easy way to solve one’s problems.

* [[Love Redeems]]: The reason The Major gave up his leadership of the GSE.

* [[Ooh, Me Accent's Slipping]]: It’s easier to count the times when Pete actually speaks in an accurate Cockney accent as opposed to his actor’s native Northern one.
