green street hooligans

this movie rocks, simply because it potrays with stark realism the violence that goes on in British football - so you get to see believable vinny jones and roy keane like thugs who beat the shit out of rival gangs or as they call it over there, firms, simply to hold on to past glories and to maintain their firm's reputation

of course, it's kinda sad to see Froddo Baggins playing the american who kicked ass with the brit football hooligans, isn't he a tad dainty? but maybe he was casted because he could be kicked around and punched square in the face and yet maintain his fin, in any case, he redeemed himself with some good acting

in green street hooligans, director lexi alexander manages to mix violence and humour without being preachy, balancing delicately the human qualities and dignity of the thugs without glorifying their futile cause

catch the movie when it's out, the english wry wit alone makes it worth its ticket price  ¶ 3:44 am
