Heaps of raw cocaine, a Miami club scene, and Tony Montana’s ‘little friend’... What else do you need to mentally gear you for a great night out.

4.Rocky

3. Swingers

Vince Vaughn swaggers his best in this flick on the unwritten rules of ‘the game’ and how to take control of any social situation.

2.Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels

Guy Ritchie’s slick, adrenaline charged comedy will have you trawling Manchester’s street in no time, feeling like a true northern monkey.
