* BrokenAesop: The film tries to convey the message that you need to know when to stand your ground and when to run away. Perhaps it does, but every bit as apparent is that violence is frequently an easy way to solve one’s problems.

* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Tommy deeply loved his son and his main goal is to take revenge on Steve for having indirectly killed him. Unlike other examples however this doesn't humanize him at all since Tommy himself is equally responsible for his son's death. No responsible father would bring his 12 years old son to a violent hooligan match. Pete later calls him out on it.

As it received mixed reviews, the film's [[WhatTheHellCastingAgency questionable casting choices]] and [[WhatTheHellIsThatAccent highly questionable accents]] (the two problems being connected) were considered serious flaws. That's not to say that the reviews were all bad, however, with Creator/RogerEbert giving the film a glowing response.
