The source for the film's high rating from the magazine Total Film ( http://www.thebestofmovies.com/TotalFilm50GreatestBritish.html ) doesn't seem like a reliable source. For one, the site counter on the list is very low, and other than the url it doesn't really cite where the list is coming from (list is also missing the last entry), or when the list came out.

== Plot summary problems ==

The plot summary here seems to overstep what can be inferred from watching the film.

Though Bass has realised the truth about Logan's murder, he does not care enough to retaliate by killing Dove. Instead, he forces Dove to forfeit his share of the loot and banishes him from London.

Not one thing here can be supported from the film.

Big Rabbit.

Someone please interpret the rabbit. I'm not sure what the hell that is about.

I think it's a recurring nightmare that Gal has. Grant | Talk 01:13, 27 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

He was hunting rabbits, but then he becomes hunted by a rabid pyschopath -- Horkana 04:55, 8 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

aitch

Isn't Ray Winstone's pal called "H" rather than "Aitch"? I assumed that "H" was short for something but of course I could be wrong. Is "Aitch" a name? Dr Spam (MD) 09:09, 8 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I wondered about that myself when I first saw it. But IMDB says the character is called "Aitch".[1] I guess it's an quirky/jokey rendition of "H". Grant | Talk 06:53, 11 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Title?

Where does the title come from? Is it the name of the sauna from which they do the burglary? Tomixdf 19:37, 21 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Sexy beast ver1.jpg

Image:Sexy beast ver1.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Security code

Harry gives Bass the vault's security code after having sex with him? When does that happen? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.66.206.77 (talk) 10:19, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't. Bass pretends to be a customer and puts a pack of cigarretes in a safety desposit box to get a look at the vault. The voice-over states that Harry is just showing off how impregnable his bank is. I changed the wording in the article. -Captain Crawdad (talk) 17:55, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Reviews

Why, yet again, for a british film or album, are all the review references US Publications? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.177.53.149 (talk) 00:37, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Probably because no British people have stepped up with references from their local reviewers yet. Perhaps you have some? -Captain Crawdad (talk) 04:12, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Unreliable source?

The source for the film's high rating from the magazine Total Film ( http://www.thebestofmovies.com/TotalFilm50GreatestBritish.html ) doesn't seem like a reliable source. For one, the site counter on the list is very low, and other than the url it doesn't really cite where the list is coming from (list is also missing the last entry), or when the list came out.
