The greatest British gangster thriller.....

Only "Get Carter" (Michael Caine) comes close

Learn how to spell dude. It's martial law. Oh, it was NOT the US government but Irish-Americans who sent money to finance the IRA. Get your facts straight.

bit like vietnam.. eh

[Joseph Melcher]

I understand that part. I meant Bob Hoskins in the role. Maybe that's why it didn't do too good in the USA.

After you've come out of a meeting with the Mafia and they drop the bombshell (pardon the pun) that they're pulling out of a deal with you, I would say you would be so pissed off that the last thing you would expect is to be collected by two IRA killers, who caught him expertly. That's why it's such a brilliant last-minute twist.

The best bit of acting Pierce Brosnan ever did.
