this be possibly the bad film i have ever see . the fact that it have a flimsy storyline be bad enough and that they have hook it around the subject of football violence make it 100 time bad . i have severe doubt about the premise of this film even before i start watch and but go into it open mind enough even to accept the way that the writer saw fit to introduce elijah wood character matt into the hooligan scene . but the film throw up inaccuracy after inaccuracy and to the point that by the middle of the film each one make you cringe hard than the time before . let clear up a few thing represent hooligan do not tend to virtually smash up their own pub before a run of the mill league game while they do not set out to kill each other while they do not only wear stone island ( and others in the crowd and hooligan or not and do ) . they most certainly do not and when have take exception to a new firm member and trot off to their rival firm territory for pie and mash . and i would love to meet the hool who would go and grass on his firm top boy to the rival firm . ( although you can scratch what i say about set to out kill each other if one do exist ) . don not get me wrong and i be yet to see a film on the subject that doesn not contain some fantasy whim and but this be on a par with the firm for cluelessness . i find it ironical that wood american nemesis be morally condemn by his character for be a cocaine user and when this be part and parcel of the british hooligan scene . the film choose not to challenge wood moral and instead steer clear of any of the firm use coke . i could go on and but i think i have make my point . a for the plot and it highly unimaginative and and i be sure if i hadn not spend the entire film bemoan the point and and more and make above then i would have guess what be go on sooner than i do . and believe me and i be well in front . i get the distinct impression this film be aim at men and with the hope that woman will enjoy the injection of emotional issue that be raise . if i be right and then the maker have fail completely . it too unrealistic to be enjoy by anyone who know about the scene and and i can not believe the kind of female who look for emotive film would give a damn about any of the character give their violent tendency . be there any good point . maybe the fight scene be well choreograph and film and but i be rarely impress by slow mo action and certainly not when it a fight a the point be a ruck be rouse enough anyway . there be some funny and if unrealistic moment . wood trip to school do raise a smile for me . but a few mildly funny moment hardly make up for watch two hour of complete fabricate dross . if youre british avoid like the plague and if only not to far develop misconception of the scene if youre not in the know . if youre american and you may enjoy it and a it clearly tailor to the market . but no one can deny the plot be flimsy and predictable and ultimately over the top .
