- Part of what makes the movie rewatchable is that everyone plays their part; Bosco, Gus and Borracho never go over the top to steal scenes.
- The suggestion is the big Hawaiian guy who talks, Marcus, a low-usage-rate player who asks why they cannot just cut loose and is intimidating in the garage scene when he starts speaking another language.
- Details noticed only after many viewings: two small children are in the garage scene, one postured up like he is ready to fight, and the major crimes office has a bench press in the back, which Russo would appreciate.
- Bosco's femoral-artery moment at the opening crime scene is liked; what the cops did with the dead robber is recalled as the start of connecting the 2005 and 2006 robberies, the ten-year bids and the new wave.
