Rise of the Footsoldier: Origins

Surely this is a parody, if so it gets a 2 for its comedy value, if not and this is serious then it's possibly one of the worst films ever made. At least Football Factory and it's like had some redeeming qualities but this is shockingly bad. OK maybe I should have given it a 3 for the background music .

Four thuggish small time Essex drug dealers are murdered whilst sitting in their car.

This low level gang crime spawns the longest running series of movies in the gangster genre history. They were in their 30s. The actors playing them are now in their 50s. 'Actors' needs a broad interpretation in their case. This latest roll of the dice is a parody. The first film had a certain visceral attractiveness. This has none. It makes an episode of Eastenders seem like a blockbuster.

If you like the C Bomb being dropped Evey 5 minutes & a lot of violence, then this might be your cup of tea, but it's not mine.

It's a bit like a torture porn film, like the Saw Series. Just ramping up the 'thrills' at the expense of story. Again, something else I didnt enjoy.

I am a big believer in the idea that films should be judged in their genre here. For this film's genre -- hyper violent British organed crime drama -- this film is quite good.

I guess this film was sponsored by "terrace cult"

All jokes aside it's a poor film,shocking acting with no plot at all,the director must think that all you need in movies is loud music,violence and obscene amounts of drug taking.
