Rise of the Footsoldier: Origins

I don't even know where to start, confused storyline, unbelievably poor acting, clothing not matching the era, dreadful dialogue, Police interviewing two villains. In the same interview, it's just awful. The only 3 good things, were the two comedy wigs and the Ford Cosworth, other than that there are no saving graces.

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 tried to get past the gratuitous and unnecessary swearing (and I'm no prude!) and find a plot and didn't find one. I can see teenagers thinking it's a cool movie but it's just not. Must admit, I'm surprised that Vinnie Jones and Craig Fairbrass even agreed to be in it. It could have been good but misses the mark on every level.

Utter rubbish and a couple of hours of my life wasted. Also paints a terrible picture of Essex!

Just don't bother.

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.

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 .
