Rise of the Footsoldier 4: Marbella

There is a hersay about the brits that they are..........! and this film really shows the cruel side of it. its as you may expect, coke, lots of f-words, and c-words, a whole lot of beating stabbing and shooting, stealing ,cheating and messing around. and in marbella, there are of course no policia/bobbies or bills around, not even a siren, just nice big houses with big bath tubs and of course some british crooks.

i think that even a nitwit can understand that this cant be a reflection of true events. but there are some funny sideshow of bipolar origin that goes tandem with the bad attitude, and if it hadnt been for these moments i would have walked out of the aula.

its the rise of the footsoldier, the grumpy old man understands that, but the mix of gaelic and keltish rumblethumb like king rollo on a high are just good enough for a five.a dig for the blood and gore fan...

I only really wanted to watch this as I wanted to see Conor Benn portraying his dad. I mean hey I even rented the movie and didn't stream it. It wasn't the worse movie I just know that if it does half well they will keep making more.. I'm sure they can't have done THAT much after the murders? Terry Stones character is getting silly now.

I don't understand how at the end of the film they go through the effort of getting an old police car for the scene outside the club for whatever year it was meant to be, but the scene in Amsterdam they were just completely lazy and didn't care about their surroundings.

Scenes in Marbella shot very well I must say but I think the story needs to end now!

Really good, I've seen all of the films in the franchise. This is the least 'gritty' of them, lots of one liners, but some good beatings dished out by Craig.

Acting is good, a few of the supporting actors weak, but nothing major.

All in all, I love this. Just rented from Apple for £5.99 and I'm left satisfied.

Story was alright, not too basic, not too complex.

Action was pretty good.

Would watch again in 3+ years Might have to watch the other "Rise of the footsoldier"s now. Didn't realise it was a thing.

This movie feels different in the best way. It's not polished or over-the-top, but that's what makes it stand out. The action is raw and feels like it has weight-every hit, every moment feels earned. But what really pulls you in is the story. It's about more than just the fights; it's about what those fights mean. The stakes feel personal, and you find yourself caring about the characters, even when they're not perfect. It's a gritty, emotional ride that keeps you hooked all the way through. This is the kind of movie that proves you don't need a big budget to make something amazing. Watch it yeah.
