Dangerous Glorification

Rating: 7/10 (28 July 2006)

First of all I will say the film for it's acting, script and cinematography is very good.
However I find this a troubling glorification of football hooliganism.
I wondered why kids from the age of 12 up were saying it was brilliant.
It's a lifestyle that has been depicted as great and thus something young impressionable teenagers will aspire to.
The character of Tommy should have seen the error of this despicable, puerile lifestyle and not declare "it was all worth it".
This film does for football violence what luis arragones does for racism.
