- Best Known for the Fanservice: Hands up, who first heard of this movie because they heard Marisa Tomei has multiple nude scenes in it?
- Harsher in Hindsight: Dual meta-example. One of the reasons Andy plans the robbery is because he was embezzling money from his company to fund a heroin addiction. Several years after the movie came out, not only did Philip Seymour Hoffman, the actor who played Andy, die of a heroin overdose, but the movie's distributor declared bankruptcy due to embezzlement.
- Jerkass Woobie: Hank is a spineless doormat, but he's so mistreated by Andy it's hard not to work up some sympathy for him.
- One-Scene Wonder: Michael Shannon as Dex. He only has two scenes but he utterly steals the film.
