I counted the amount of F-Words in this movie and there's 429 and if anyone can try to prove me wrong they can actually watch the movie and stop screwin around.
Movies like this suck like when they rely on audiences that rent movies for this *beep* language. I mean casino was tolerable because it at least was entertaing and had a good plot but this one is like a *beep* comedy for the poor. Thats all i have to say.

I can stand as many F-words as I have to if the movie is good. If a movie sucks and there's only one F-word, then I can't stand it!

There are that many f bombs because that's the way people speak there.

If you dont like this type of language, then what ever you do dont come to Barnsley, pritty much ever sentence begins and ends with a profanity, with a few chucked in the middle for good measure.
But seriously, the swearing in this movie was to make these characters feel reel, nothing in this movie is suger coated, becuase life isnt suger coated, and becuase of that the film feels more real and more compeling, I gave more of a *beep* about these characters in this movie then characters in most movies becuase they reminded me of people I know, I've met every character in this movie, I've had to deliver a good seeing to every now and again to Ray, The Ray character is just like my cusins boyfriend, constantly gets drunk and abuses her, I've been phoned a good few times in the morning to pick up my cusin becuase of he's had too much and gone on one of his tantrums and he gets a good kicking for it, my cusin is nothing like Valerie but my mums mate is, she chain smokes and sits infront of the telly all day.
The Janet Character works at the Local garage near our house, Bill is my Brother, Angus is my (Different cusin to mentioned) cusin.
See these guys, every one in the movie is completely relatable, becuase of the movies realistic take on life, rather then suger coating it and glossing it up, they strip it down to the grittiness of life.
"In fact in certain places and among certain groups of people not to swear all the time...men ,women and children alike, marks you out as being "different" and can even provoke hostility.So it is reflecting one aspect of Brit society..like it or not."
Interesting....so you're saying if I go to a certain area and I don't swear then the people might be offended?...if I don't swear?
Whoa, they'd hate me! Lol.
Seriously, though, I'm watching this movie for the first time and oddly enough it's not bothering me as much as "Summer of Sam" does.
I've never counted the number of F words in a movie, but I think this may have more F's than "Summer of Sam".
To me, a lot of the F words in SOS seem a lot more gratuitous than in NBM.
I know, I'm strange, :P.

Maybe it's because I live in the dead centre of Edmonton, but if "Ray" (aka "Your Ray"; aka "Your cusins boyfriend") got drunk, beat up your cousin, you went and beat up Ray... but true love rose high and your cusin took "Ray" back, and then "Ray" got drunk... etc., etc., wouldn't logic dictate that somebody is doing SOMETHING wrong? Like, maybe beating up "Ray" isn't solving "Ray"'s underlying alcohol addiction or rage issues or feelings of inadequancy? Or maybe your cusin should stay away from "Ray" for good?
And it's not like I'm talking out of me arse here, mates. I'm not taking the piss or looking for a good smack to the 'ead. I grew up in an abusive home until me mudder had the guts to leave my da. Now, some 20+ years later, she's living with a guy and such, but if he ever raised a hand to her, well, a) I wouldn't have to do anything because I'm QUITE sure me mudder can swing a mallet with thee best of 'em; and b) My mother's a grown woman who has been in an abusive relationship and has left it.
OF COURSE it's hard for a woman - with 2 kids under 10, who married straight out of high school and has no job experience - to leave an abusive relationship. I'm not going to sit here and say it's easy because I lived it. But, if she would have kept going back to him; if she would have got the divorce and then, 6 months later, OH! we got a "new da"!, who, of course, is showing all the signs of being an abuser and me mudder is ignoring them; if she would have told her cusin (way back in the day) that she was being beaten, and her cusin's response would have been to "give me da a good kicking for it"... and then just waited for the next time; if ANY of those things were to have happened, then the blame would have to be shared amongst me da, me mudder, and certainly me mudder's cusin for thinking violence would somehow stop a cycle of violence.

Movies like this sucks? Real life sucks for a lot of people and this movie catches real life. Maybe not your life, but then you are one of the lucky ones. GFY.
share"How many F-Words can one stand in a movie?"
All of them.
Swear words only offend self-righteous prigs, which is, of course, the best reason to use them. ;)
This is portrayed realistically. Correct me if im wrong but is the op from the US? Forget how other countries (ok then the US) think how it is over here. We dont wear bowler hats and talk posh. On my travels around the world Ive never heard people swear like they do here. Even Australia , nothing near to what I can hear in the UK all day every day.
I was using every swear word going by the age of 7-8yrs old. Not good or anything to be proud of but thats just how it is.
Completely agree with the start of the above. Spend any time around your average 'lower class' family in the UK and this is pretty much the kind of language you will here.
What I don't agree with is this whole condescending view people take upon others based solely upon the language that they employ. No, constant swearing is nothing to be proud of, but at the end of the *beep* day, they're just words. To go and do the complete reverse is just ridiculous. If you're gonna do that then you may as well go belittle people that employ neutral vowel sounds between every other word.
I found the constant use of the f-word pretty annoying. It reminds me a lot of the teenage girls who can't help saying "like" at least twice every time they open their mouths, or African Americans who end practically every sentence with a "You know what I'm saying?"
What I found more disturbing, though, was the frequent use of the c-word. Ray Winstone deserved to get his head bashed in for calling his wife a *c&&&* again and again.
its only sound shaped with a mouth... you are the one who's giving it an overwhelming importance, so just ignore it and enjoy it or ignore it and don't enjoy it... why focus on something that irrelevant
