Go To

  • Ass Pull: Why the hell Sauvage, who himself relies on an army of criminal thugs, is enlisting the help of the thirteen biggest players in world organized crime to imprison the entirety of the global criminal element in Britain is never explained. He's not even offering to wipe out their competition; while giving his presentation, Sauvage just comes off as an insane Lawful Evil, if a Type 2.
    Pascal: What is the one commodity the world never seems to run out of? Criminals, gentlemen. Lawbreakers. Every nation in the world struggles with the issue of overcrowded prisons. So, what do we do with all these villains? Find the solution to that problem, and the governments of the world would pay you through their nose.
  • Hilarious in Hindsight: John Malkovich stars in this film as a jewel thief.
  • Squick: Johnny climinbg through a pipe who actually leads to a group toilet and getting covered in human feces. Same thing happens to Bough later.
  • The Scrappy: Between his unjustifiable incompetence, being a bad boss and mistreating his subordinates, being leniet with crimes commited by Pascal Sauvage, without even making any effort to investigate the crimes commited by him, including treason and conspiracy to elminate the Queen Of England, in addition to being implied to have been a corrupt law officer and even more a corrupt British government officer, there's a very likely chance that you'll dislike the first movie's version of Pegasus when all is said and done.
