A New Breed of Criminal

From the opening scenes and bad lighting, knew this wasn't going to be great.

The narrator even pronounced Elswick with the emphasis on the W, Els Wick, lol

Kept with it hoping to spot places I knew. No nothing to see here, drone shots of the Tyne and a random pub in Consett?

Acting hilarious, at one point thought it was a comedy, it's that bad.

Then realised who Vic was supposed to be and that definitely confirmed it was a comedy.

At one point thought they must of had a Time Machine. Mostly set in the 80's with licence plates of present day and everyone using an I phone.

Save your time and don't bother.

The worst film I've ever seen. Bad lighting, bad acting. Smart phones in the 70s 😂 along with modern police cars and uniforms. Diabolical camera work. Why was there a narrator throughout it just made me cringe with embarrassment. Wraith simply cannot act and should never act again. The judges wig looked like something from the joke shop on the Queyside. Avoid at all costs. The police actors were laughable and I just simply could not take them seriously. The fight scenes were absolutely completely ridiculous with no realism whatsoever. Spent your money on something entertaining rather than watching this tripe.

I know nothing of this story and after watching this film I still know nothing of this story. Its what you call a poor poor man's rise of footsoldier, but one of the sequels cos the original was a good film.

I can forgive the bad casting, stupid accents, time scale, dumb costume, laughable fight sequences, wooden characters etc but at the heart of all this is the awful script. I see the lead character wrote this, and sadly it shows. This is my first time watching a Steve Wraith film and sadly it will be my last. The script was gcse level at best. Not one for slatting ppl in industry but this needs to be said... 'Steve, you may read this and think I don't understand the film you made, but I do and it was a badly made one. Sorry but it's true. Plus those who funded the film, are you on drugs?' Anyone who thinks this is even a fair film knows nothing about film so ignore any high reviews.

Believe me when I say this is possibly the worst 'film' ever made.

The acting is atrocious and makes me cringe.

Don't get me started on Steve Wraith. He cannot act, it's depressingly bad to witness and he needs to accept that.

The American cops accent was hideously poor, how it got past the edit just shows you how amateurish this whole venture was.

One thing I did enjoy though was the choreography on the fight scenes, absolutely hilarious, as if it was done by a couple of 12 year olds in their drama class or even still at break time.

Basically to sum it up, I'd recommend this to nobody...

The filum reminds me of a home movie a group of friends have made for a Community Service project, Wraith is as intimidating as a Greggs Steak Slice in the lead role.

The rest of the filums "stars" are are right motley crew of strays and you can certainly tell that the only previous acting they have done has been at their PIP assessments or other DSS related blags.

Delving a little deeper into the people who the filum is about opens a huge Pandoras box, especially considering recent events in the NE involving Hearses, St James's Park, box vans and properties being attacked with tins of black paint.

It's obviously a completely fictional account and should be seen as such Don't bother.
