Can someone explain this for me? Does John become a neo-nazi because he really is on the 'Job' undercover or because he really believes in those ideas as a result of his actions in the film? Or are we meant to make our own minds up?
I think that he's neither a nazi, nor he was working under cover, he just joined that nazi gang to be part of something, after he was exposed as a cop with the hooligans and his casual lover and he was despised with his wife and family.
Sad ending. I think this could happen to many people and therefore it explains why many people join extremist groups.
@Nemesis2459 I saw the movie a long time ago, but if I'm not mistaken, he ditched his friends when they left the investigation and he decided to remain with the hooligans, not to mention that he kicked one of them.
oh yeah he ditched em for the hooligans but then the hooligans wouldnt take him back after his affair gf found out he was a copper, but after that when he had no'one left he shoulda asked his friends for forgiveness but i guess he was too messed up in the head by then
@Dorinus2 I explained it through my comment, but it's pretty clear that he is not working any more, he sadly lost the two lives he had, as a hooligan and as a cop-family man and he just pretends to be working under cover in front of his former colleague, but he is just hanging out with the nazis to be part of something.
@chsbcg would you care to explain what is scummy about being the only people in your country who have ever actually done anything to stand up for it? If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem. You are the one who has no right to wave the flag, because people like you might as well just use it as arse paper.
@MrJAckSo8N No I am a multi ethnic multi racial multi cultural multi gender multi functional non-discriminating citizen of this wonderful new world order......of course I am WHITE !!!
@jbravo41 Why are skinheads scum? It was never a racist sub culture, but was almost adopted by the far right. There used to be quite a lot of black skinheads too, mate.
@xXIbanezJamesXx Saw enough of them back in the day, scum because they behave like it, don´t see any sense in getting drunk and starting fights over nothing, but hey, that is what kids are these days anyways, just that the Skin movement did not have ANYTHING to offer to begin with
I remember Reece Dinsdale in "Threads" the nuclear war shocker, depicting a 1+ megaton strike on Sheffield , nasty stuff , pulled no punches...then again for real would have been worse!!!
Totally agree. Great ending to a brilliant film. Really surprised nobody picked up that Reece was such a good actor. He was Oldman/ Day-Lewis-esque in this film. A brilliant performance and a real quality film.
"You twat! you'll never learn- now fuck off outta my face before you get me killed" Always laugh at his delivery. Dinsdale's great in this. Pity he's in Corrie now.
I thought the exact same thing, like he just completely gave up his life as a cop and headed deeper into the belly of the beast until he ended up as the baddest of the bad, and how much more hardcore can you get than a neo-nazi. Fantastic ending, the credit music is really the cherry on top.
i reckon he did join the nf anything to do with violence i reckon and the nf leaders love redruiting guys like john because there easy to control.but its amazing what happened to john in the end he lost everything
this ending was fucked up man, to see a cool copper go right to rock bottom like that, man.....

I remember reading the original review where it states he loses his job as a Police Officer.
When he says 'on a job', he is referring to being paid as a hired boot boy for the right wing extremists.
