Not only is Stephen Graham a brilliant actor, but also a top fella. When Thomas's mum sadly passed shorty after the film. Him and his wife almost adopted him. Both stars all round.
I'm impressed with Stephen Graham. I never saw an Englishman play an Italian gangster with such CONVICTION and EASE. The way he plays Al Capone is nothing short of amazing.
One of the greatest films of all time this. Graham is an unreal actor too, probably goes under the radar but he’s up there with the best ever. Probably wouldn’t get away with showing a clip of a film of this nature during a breakfast time show these days
Combo is a great character. He is a guy who has gotten the bad hand in life and therefore feels angry and pissed off at everyone who he thinks are happier than him. I don't even think he is a racist, he just feels the need to vent his anger at someone. His speech about the Falklands War I think proves that. A true racist would be 100% behind that war and saying stuff like "yeah, we showed them Argie bastards!" and "them monkeys thought they could get away with that!" But he doesn't, he says it was a shitty war and that Thatcher sent them away millions of miles to another corner of the world to fight for nothing. And he was so right.
Totally agree. He even says openly he was jealous of Milky's loving family. He kicked in milkys head just after he boasts of the great meals they eat together. It is even more sad when it is milkys extended family who decides to despatch of combo in the end. Tragic irony. Epic series
? ? ? Not sure why you guys are all defending Combo. Are you forgetting he deliberately built a racist bully crew around him, including recruiting little Shaun, to go around spouting racist shit and terrorising black and brown people, including young kids?? I simply could NOT understand why the other characters decided to 'magically' forgive/forget all the awful shit these guys did, and all started hanging out together in the TV series later... SO NOT COOL!!! I did get the feeling that Combo regretted what he did to Milky, when you see him in the TV series, talking to Lol from prison. So I was glad at least for that. But I still think he should have apologised to Milky directly for nearly killing him. There was just no excuse for that, no matter how jealous he felt of Milky's happy childhood...

I PRAY THAT WHO READ THIS AND INVEST WILL BE SUCCESSFUL, IF YOU WANT TO BE SUCCESSFUL HAVE THE MINDSET OF THE RICH, SPEND LESS AND INVEST MORE. DON'T GIVE UP YOUR DREAMS.
I cried when Combo got what he deserved...only because I knew so many racists who deserved the same...so glad I was always a punk/original skin.This shit was common in my day,and thankfully most of us were human! One love x
stephen graham lives down the road from me in a village called ibstock well he did i dunno if he still does hes a great person to meet very funny fella
DAMN! Never occurred to me. He looks a fair bit like him and his voice is near identical. Stephen Graham is actually a white Jamaican though as it happens, and of course Craig Charles appears to be mixed race. But yeah Stephen Graham is actually part Jamaican, which really surprised me when I found out.
Im not sure if you will have a full understanding on this movie as much as people from england, things are alot different in england to america, then again i may be wrong and u might love the film.
I met Thomas on xbox live and I looked him up on facebook and sent him a friend request and he accepted. he has all of these pictures with Johnny Depp and stuff so I googled him found out who he is. I live in the US and had no idea. I think it's pretty freakin cool that that happened.
@killerkid123100 "how does he know?" How on earth don't you know? Don't you have two speakers plugged into your computer?? You don't need headphones to work out the sound's only coming out the left speaker.
