The film's director and writer, John Michael McDonagh, is the brother of Martin McDonagh, who had directed Gleeson in the Oscar-winning Six Shooter (2004) and the critically acclaimed In Bruges (2008).
Boyle states that he was 4th in the 1988 Olympics in Seoul, in 1500m freestyle swimming. In the end of the movie Everett says that it's not true, and the photographer kid replies: 'It's easy to look up'. In the 1988 Olympics the 4th place in this event was won by an American named Matt Cetlinski. The other contestants mentioned were real: two Germans won the 2nd and 3rd place (Stefan Pfeiffer and Uwe Dassler respectively), while the 1st place was won by the Soviet Vladimir Salnikov.
According to the audio commentary, the uniform that Sergeant Boyle puts on for the movie's end is not a ceremonial dress uniform, but an older Garda uniform that was retired in the 1980s. This is however incorrect, the tunic and old style hat and trousers were removed from front-line operational use in the early 1990s and replaced with just a shirt and jacket. It is still issued and used for certain ceremonial occasions such as graduation ceremonies.
The film Sgt Boyle is watching at home is The Shout (1978) starring Alan Bates and John Hurt.
The "Fat Man" whom Sergeant Boyle quotes in the bar is Sydney Greenstreet in The Maltese Falcon (1941).
"Sergeant Gerry Boyle: There were gay lads in the IRA? Colum Hennessey: Mmm... one or two. [Shrugs] Colum Hennessey: It was the only way we could successfully infiltrate the MI5."
"Sergeant Gerry Boyle: Now I know what you're thinking. You're thinking, these men are armed and dangerous, and you being an FBI agent you're more used to shooting at unarmed women and children... FBI agent Wendell Everett: Oh, fuck you, Sergeant!"
