Rise of the Footsoldier - The Marbella Job

This movie feels different in the best way. It's not polished or over-the-top, but that's what makes it stand out. The action is raw and feels like it has weight-every hit, every moment feels earned. But what really pulls you in is the story. It's about more than just the fights; it's about what those fights mean. The stakes feel personal, and you find yourself caring about the characters, even when they're not perfect. It's a gritty, emotional ride that keeps you hooked all the way through. This is the kind of movie that proves you don't need a big budget to make something amazing. Watch it yeah.

I seriously enjoyed this! Not exactly oscar winning but certainly is entertaining!

Story was alright, not too basic, not too complex.

Action was pretty good.

Would watch again in 3+ years Might have to watch the other "Rise of the footsoldier"s now. Didn't realise it was a thing.

March 2022.

Really good, I've seen all of the films in the franchise. This is the least 'gritty' of them, lots of one liners, but some good beatings dished out by Craig.

Acting is good, a few of the supporting actors weak, but nothing major.

All in all, I love this. Just rented from Apple for £5.99 and I'm left satisfied.

If the Marvel franchise made a film about the eponymous Pate Tate, this would be it. As mildly entertaining as it was there is not a single morsel based in fact. They portrayed Tony Tucker, a sociopathic, mindless nutter as a giggling buffoon and Craig Rolfe as his sidekick/punchline. With themes stolen from 'The Business' the film's only saving grace is Craig Fairbrass's brutal portrayal of a truly evil and narcissistic individual who had no regard for anyone or anything. In conclusion it's worth a watch but it's more a comedy than a serious biographical endeavour
