Green street

[Woodchip]

I forgot just how crap this film is. It really is dire.

The violence for me is better than football factory; but it's far too American, obviously the main character is, but even the way it's filmed

Rise of the foot solider is a class above

Its that fellas "cockney" accent that makes me cringe, it makes Dick Van Dykes less embarressing

I'm watching it thinking he sounds more American than Elijah Wood. Shocking casting, scripting and coming. Choreography is good though.

Should have put Awaydays on instead.

[MENTION=2878]Woodchip[/MENTION] tbh wasnt keen on away days, started well but kind of lost interest,Gary Oldman in "The Firm" isnt bad and I think that was based on true events and/or people (I might be wrong though) and ID (not realistic) but was a good "Thug Film", I read John Kings Football Factory which TBH and I know its "Cliche" but book was alot better altough film not bad the book was more intellegent and better insite into the characters

Don't try Green Street 2 then - quite possibly the worst film EVER.

The book of Awaydays is better than the film too.

[MENTION=2878]Woodchip[/MENTION] I might have a look for that then, I imagine it was because there was something missing with the film that I expect the book fills in, thanks I will check on Amazon

Worst cockney accent I have ever heard. Sounds more like Crocodile Dundee.

Kevin Sampson writes some bloody good books, but that is going way off topic.

Rise of the foot soldier is f***ing brilliant, loved that film.

Away days was brilliant too, was left baffled by that fella though. Might have to get the book.

It's f***ing dreadful.

Really liked Football Factory (and all three books in the trilogy) and haven't seen the Rise of the Foot Soldier

I love green street it's so bad it's brilliant the dialogue is so corny I watch it as a comedy

Green Street is utter shite but even worse. Is
Green Street 2 set in a prison !
So obviously filmed by Americans in America.
All the prison officers are dressed in blue shirts with American
Police style hats and carrying t- bar batons.
Utter joke !!!!!!!

Football factory is good, how anybody can say rise of the footsoldier is a good film is beyond me , its just lots of swearing and mindless violence.

Shocking wasn't it? That and having a Hobbit for a hooligan; made Mary Poppins look like an accurate documentary on Edwardian nannies.

ID had its moments.

Tits.

 

[madinthehead]

Defo another vote for ID..
I love you Gumbo!!
Thought football factory was ok, but Green Street was a waste of time

 

[Easy 10]

I watched about 11 minutes of Green Street 2 before realising what a complete waste of an evening it would be, and terminated it immediately. At least I wasted my evening doing something else.
