Beanbioca As Good As It Gets

Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Taha Avalos The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

GUENOT PHILIPPE I guess the British film industry will never get tired of the Essex Boys affair, or I would say killing, that occurred in 1995, a sort of mini Saint Valentine massacre made in UK. I have never been informed of this killing, except through those movies never released in France. But I am sure that's at least the sixth film speaking of this affair. I am sure they will make films about it fifty years from now. There were not so many movies about the Great Train Robbery which took place in August 1963. I like crime or gangster flicks from over the Channel, although they seem all alike. You have two kinds, the SNATCH kind and the RISE OF THE FOOT SOLDIER one. I have seen dozens of those features, and I prefer the second genre, more brutal and realistic with also less humor. One more thing, about the scene where the young hood is killed with a riot gun in the end; when you get killed with this kind of rifle, your body jumps to the rear, it doesn't stand still...Caliber 12 is not 9mm...

Benjames800 Same as the other reviews! Many better films like this are available. ROTF, The Business, The Football Factory. Even cockneys VS Zombies gave this film a run for its money! Same old southern crap, even the camera angles are off putting! There are quite a few parts where I think they ran out of ideas so decided to get the actors to say c@nt repeatedly just to make it sound more edgy! Crap film. With the actors used this could have probably been a half decent film! (Even though it has been done to death) All in all, rubbish film. A poor performance from most of the cast and many faults with the plot so as not to be entirely watchable! To be honest this film would make me ashamed to be "one of them cockneys" Luckily I from up north and try my best not to associate with people further south than Chesterfield.

David O'Brien Rise Of The Footsoldier was such an accomplished film that you would be mistaken for thinking that a prequel would be of as equally high a calibre. Disappointly this is a stinker. The narrative behind Rise Of The Footsoldier gave it a clarity of purpose. The script was rather witty. This film is glum. The dialogue doesn't sparkle. Plenty of "c" and "f" curse words but not used in an amusing way at all. The biggest shocker for me here was that Pat Tate was played by Tamer Hassan instead of Craig Fairbrass, Terry Stone reprises his role as Tony Tucker but Craig Rolfe here is portrayed by Neil Maskell instead of Ronald Manookian. I couldn't believe it when the film portrayed the Rettendon murders yet again. Eh, I thought this was a prequel, and not an inferior sister film ? Ricci Harnett's presence as Carlton Leech is sadly missed. He was quite a presence in Rise Of The Footsoldier. I can't help feeling that Julian Gilbey would have done a better job as director here, but of course he probably had the good sense not to get involved in this. It's obviously a cash-in and quite a poor one at that.

ajay699 A real well put together movie, i have enjoyed it thoroughly. Some great scenes as well as humorous in parts.A must see movie, not one to be missed.
