    Storyline

    Edit

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Robert Carlyle has said that filming was chaotic and that 20th Century Fox were so unhappy with the first cut that they considered scrapping its theatrical release and going straight to video. Carlyle has stated that it was the hard work of producer Uberto Pasolini and editor Nick Moore that rescued the film.
    • Goofs
      Whilst the guys are watching Flashdance (1983), Dave criticizes the girl welding saying the mixture is all wrong and she's using too much acetylene. Shows how much he knows - she is actually arc welding.
    • Quotes

      Dave: Anti-wrinkle cream there may be, but anti-fat-bastard cream there is not.

    • Crazy credits
      The film shown behind the opening credits is "Sheffield...City on the move", made in 1971 for the Sheffield Publicity Department.
    • Alternate versions
      There are two English versions of the film: one is the original UK version, the other is the US version which is partly re-dubbed to replace some British dialects and slang phrases.

    "Excuse me... nobody said anything to me about the Full Monty"
    I remember this movie when it originally came out. It looked interesting, but I was younger at the time and I wasn't allowed to watch R-rated movies. Later, I finally saw this movie about three years ago on HBO. I laughed my a** off. It was so freakin' funny and I still think it is funny. I bought the "Fully Exposed" two disc DVD and I still love this movie. Yeah some people don't understand British humor, but I love it still. I grew up watching Bristish shows like "Mr. Bean" and "Are You Being Served?" I love those shows and I love this movie, I think it is one of the best comedies ever made. I highly recommend it, you will laugh as hard as I did.
