Rise of the Footsoldier 4: Marbella

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

I only really wanted to watch this as I wanted to see Conor Benn portraying his dad. I mean hey I even rented the movie and didn't stream it. It wasn't the worse movie I just know that if it does half well they will keep making more.. I'm sure they can't have done THAT much after the murders? Terry Stones character is getting silly now.

I don't understand how at the end of the film they go through the effort of getting an old police car for the scene outside the club for whatever year it was meant to be, but the scene in Amsterdam they were just completely lazy and didn't care about their surroundings.

Scenes in Marbella shot very well I must say but I think the story needs to end now!

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.

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