** Made extra funny because it's the same obnoxious jobsworth who refused to take Ken's change to enter the tower in the beginning. [[AssholeVictim He realises too late who he's bullying the second time around.]]

* On their first night in Bruges, Ray is impatient at being stuck in the hotel as per Harry's orders and wants to go to the pub. He gets Ken to stop reading and go out by slyly mentioning how picturesque the city must look at night. He evens gives a little cheer of glee as Ken laments and puts his book down.

* Just the fact that not only does Creator/RalphFiennes play a character called "[[Literature/HarryPotter Harry]]", but the film ends with him killing himself.



* As dark and depressing as it gets afterward, the initial reaction of both Ken and Ray [[spoiler: when Ken realizes Ray was about to shoot himself and that Ken was about to kill Ray]] is surrealist hilarity.

* Towards the end of the film, Harry and Ken go into the tower to [[spoiler: have a shootout without endangering any civilians. In the tower, Ken sets his gun aside as Harry draws his and Harry is absolutely incredulous at what Ken tells him...up until Harry decides to spare him, but still shoots him in the leg as punishment.

* Harry's entire interaction with Eirik and Yuri, beginning with him walking in, seeing Eirik looking sullen and wearing an eye patch, and saying cheerfully [[{{Pun}} "Aye-aye".]] Then:
-->'''Yuri''': I also have some durm-durms. You know this word, "durm-durms"? The bullets that make the head explode?
-->'''Harry''': Dum-dums. Yeah.
-->'''Yuri''': Would you like some of these durm-durms?
-->'''Harry''': [''as if he's being offered a chocolate''] I know I shouldn't. ... But I will. [''takes the whole box'']
-->'''Eirik''': [''muttering to himself''] Mother''fucker''.
-->'''Harry''': Is he talking to me?
-->'''Yuri''': No. Eirik's on your side, Mr Waters. Your young friend blinded him last night.
-->'''Harry''': Ray did?
-->'''Eirik''': [''with great bitterness''] I was trying to rob him. And he took my gun from me. And the gun was full of blanks. And he shot the blank into my eye. And now I cannot see from this eye, ever again, doctors say.
-->'''Harry''': Well, to be honest, it sounds like it was all your fault.
-->'''Eirik''': What?!
-->'''Harry''': I mean, basically, if you're robbing a man and you're only carrying blanks, and you allow your gun to be taken off you, and you allow yourself to be shot in the eye with a blank, which I assume the person has to get quite close to you, then... yeah, really it's all your fault for being such a poof. So why don't you stop whingein', and cheer the fuck up.
-->[''Eirik stands up, angry'']
-->'''Yuri''': Eirik. I really wouldn't respond.
-->[''Harry smiles pleasantly at Eirik. Eirik calms himself down.'']
-->'''Eirik''': I thought you wanted the guy dead.
-->'''Harry''': I '''do''' want the guy dead. I want him fuckin' crucified. But it don't change the fact that he stitched you up like a blind little gay boy, does it? ... Thanks for the gun, Yuri.

When they don't pick up on his hints, he finally gives up and tell them they are "a bunch of fookin' elephants". Additional (accidental) hilarious comes from the fact that despite being [[{{Eagleland}} being heavily coded as American]], the actors playing the family are ''incredibly'' non-American and don't try to use American accents or language.
