Surprisingly Good Movie

Rating: 9/10 (3 January 2008)

I found the DVD of this in a bargain bin and decided to pick it up as i have an interest in football and enjoy English films. I was expecting an average film but was really surprised. The characters were likable and funny (i don't mean to say beating people up makes a likable character i meant that they're good mates that value friendships, camaraderie, enjoy a laugh and a beer etc etc i guess i can relate to that), the story was well paced and enjoyable, the soundtrack was great, and the fighting scenes weren't too graphically violent or prolonged which suited me just fine. I don't know what else to say rather than that i was entertained and satisfied by this story (im a fan of movies which tell you what happens to all the characters at the end). A Little similar to trainspotting and lock stock, both of which i think are superb films. So if you like those be sure to check this out.
Definitely glad i picked it up seen it a few times and is a DVD to re-watch every now and again, very nice movie.
