A lot better than i first thought

Rating: 8/10 (12 December 2005)

Well first off, i went into the cinema expecting to come out refreshed as i assumed i would fall asleep. But i was wrong and let me tell you why. The film starts off in an excellent way, a fight between 2 rival gangs, and this sets the mood for the whole entire play. Woods acting was amazing, i mean i wasn't expecting much, but he amazed me, his representation of his troubled character shows that he isn't a typecast of Frodo. However Hunnman(sp) was also good, but his cockny accent was poor, at time it was cringeworthy. In my opinion this was better that Football Factory, the violence was better and more realistic, the tension created was better, but maybe it was because it had Wood in it and we've grown to love him as Frodo, nevertheless it was more realistic as well. For a first time director this film is a great stepping stone and I'm sure we will be seeing more of this female director for years and years to come
