- TriviaIn an interview with Sacha Baron Cohen in promoting the movie, SBC said of the English town of Grimsby: "Grimsby is a lovely town in the North of England, which is twinned with the city of Chernobyl. I'm very proud of it - it was recently declared number three in the whole of Europe for childhood obesity and we just became the first town in England to achieve 100 per cent unemployment. Grimsby's a friendly place, where the little things that strangers say matter a lot. Like a 'please', a 'thank you', a 'not guilty'."

Featured review
Normally I am not overly keen on the movies that Sacha Baron Cohen stars in, because he is fairly singular and monotonous in his movies. As in if you've seen one of his movies, you have essentially seen all.
However I decided to give the movie a chance because it had Mark Strong on the cast list, and also because my wife said it was a hilarious movie. It turned out that this was actually a rather enjoyable and funny movie. There were some really funny moments throughout the course of the movie. And yes, I did laugh a lot throughout this movie as the endless gags kept coming.
The storyline was a good combination of serious plot and silly comedy. And I must admit that this was one of Sascha Baron Cohen's better movies actually.
The Brothers Grimsby" is good for an evening of cheap laughs, but I doubt this is a movie that you will pick up and watch more than once as it doesn't seem to have enough contents to support more than a single viewing.
