• Crowning Moment of Awesome: The ending, which surprisingly averts It Was His Sled in that saying anything else would be a major spoiler.
• Crowning Moment of Funny: Many, but particularly the poker game, in which Gondorff is trying to become utterly despised.

Gondorff: Sorry I'm late, I was taking a crap.

• Ear Worm: Scott Joplin's The Entertainer.
• Fridge Brilliance: Marvin Hamlisch' adaption of Scott Joplin's ragtime music may be an odd choice for the the score since they're from the turn of the century and out of fashion by the time of the movie's setting, 1936. However, it was the music of the younger days of older con men like Luther, Walter Gondorf and the other members of the team. The jazz of the more "modern" gangster wouldn't fit.
• Sequelitis: And how.
