    Storyline

    • Trivia
      In an interview with Sacha Baron Cohen in promoting the movie, SBC said of the English town of Grimsby: "Grimsby is a lovely town in the North of England, which is twinned with the city of Chernobyl. I'm very proud of it - it was recently declared number three in the whole of Europe for childhood obesity and we just became the first town in England to achieve 100 per cent unemployment. Grimsby's a friendly place, where the little things that strangers say matter a lot. Like a 'please', a 'thank you', a 'not guilty'."
    • Goofs
      When Nobby and Seb were taking a bath, the water level kept changing between camera shots.
    • Quotes

      Sebastian Graves: Trust you? Trust you? Because of you, the head of the World Health Organisation is dead and Harry Potter has AIDS. You managed to do in three seconds what Voldemort failed to do in eight movies!

    • Crazy credits
      Contains both a mid-credit and post-credit scene.
    • Alternate versions
      The British theatrical release reduced the amount of "crude humour" in order to obtain a 15 rating.

    Hardcore comedy for adults.

    This film is nuts. It's so hardcore, perverted and sick that I would not recommend it to most people. But the ones who love hardcore perverted films once in a while will have a treat with this one.
