Rise of the Footsoldier: Origins

I tried to get past the gratuitous and unnecessary swearing (and I'm no prude!) and find a plot and didn't find one. I can see teenagers thinking it's a cool movie but it's just not. Must admit, I'm surprised that Vinnie Jones and Craig Fairbrass even agreed to be in it. It could have been good but misses the mark on every level.

Utter rubbish and a couple of hours of my life wasted. Also paints a terrible picture of Essex!

Just don't bother.

I am a big believer in the idea that films should be judged in their genre here. For this film's genre -- hyper violent British organed crime drama -- this film is quite good.

I don't even know where to start, confused storyline, unbelievably poor acting, clothing not matching the era, dreadful dialogue, Police interviewing two villains. In the same interview, it's just awful. The only 3 good things, were the two comedy wigs and the Ford Cosworth, other than that there are no saving graces.

I guess this film was sponsored by "terrace cult"

All jokes aside it's a poor film,shocking acting with no plot at all,the director must think that all you need in movies is loud music,violence and obscene amounts of drug taking.

Four thuggish small time Essex drug dealers are murdered whilst sitting in their car.

This low level gang crime spawns the longest running series of movies in the gangster genre history. They were in their 30s. The actors playing them are now in their 50s. 'Actors' needs a broad interpretation in their case. This latest roll of the dice is a parody. The first film had a certain visceral attractiveness. This has none. It makes an episode of Eastenders seem like a blockbuster.
