A New Breed of Criminal

I know nothing of this story and after watching this film I still know nothing of this story. Its what you call a poor poor man's rise of footsoldier, but one of the sequels cos the original was a good film.

I can forgive the bad casting, stupid accents, time scale, dumb costume, laughable fight sequences, wooden characters etc but at the heart of all this is the awful script. I see the lead character wrote this, and sadly it shows. This is my first time watching a Steve Wraith film and sadly it will be my last. The script was gcse level at best. Not one for slatting ppl in industry but this needs to be said... 'Steve, you may read this and think I don't understand the film you made, but I do and it was a badly made one. Sorry but it's true. Plus those who funded the film, are you on drugs?' Anyone who thinks this is even a fair film knows nothing about film so ignore any high reviews.

The worst film i have ever seen...Steve wraith is the worst actor iv ever seen and the rest are no better..80s/90s and they have modern cars made decades later 1 landrover even had a chrome wrap!?? They are also using touch screen android phones when they weren't even invented!..everything in this film is bad....i dont understand why it was even made..its about a north east criminal who wasn't very successful and spent a lot of time in prison...don't waste your time.. its boring.........Newcastle is a great place with lots of great people and this movie just shows a dark side that people dont really care about.

The worst film I've ever seen. Bad lighting, bad acting. Smart phones in the 70s 😂 along with modern police cars and uniforms. Diabolical camera work. Why was there a narrator throughout it just made me cringe with embarrassment. Wraith simply cannot act and should never act again. The judges wig looked like something from the joke shop on the Queyside. Avoid at all costs. The police actors were laughable and I just simply could not take them seriously. The fight scenes were absolutely completely ridiculous with no realism whatsoever. Spent your money on something entertaining rather than watching this tripe.

Believe me when I say this is possibly the worst 'film' ever made.

The acting is atrocious and makes me cringe.

Don't get me started on Steve Wraith. He cannot act, it's depressingly bad to witness and he needs to accept that.

The American cops accent was hideously poor, how it got past the edit just shows you how amateurish this whole venture was.

One thing I did enjoy though was the choreography on the fight scenes, absolutely hilarious, as if it was done by a couple of 12 year olds in their drama class or even still at break time.

Basically to sum it up, I'd recommend this to nobody...

Bless Steve Wraith , the lad so wants to be an actor ....but he's not .Ive seen him in a few things and he's more wooden than Pinocchio's left leg .He seems to stiffen up whenever he has to move .I found myself questioning the actual point of 99% of the film and after sitting through the whole film (in 3 separate sittings) I feel I should punish myself , especially after paying for the privilege. I have an old rusty tin opener in the shed and later on today I will gouge both of my eyes out in an attempt tempt to cleanse my body and what's left of my soul. It makes Rise of the Footsoldier 7 look like Gone With The Wind. I feel I should mention the accent of the lead detective , I can only describe it as sounding like An American Joe Pasquale being violated with a cattle prod. All in all possibly thee worst thing I've ever watched in my life and that includes watching my workmate sneeze in the van causing a large bloodied snot to land on the dashboard.
