Leofwine_draca THE HOOLIGAN WARS is another one of those extremely low budget British crime films which is full of profanity and unknown actors doing their best hard-man routines but coming across as ineffectual and rather weak. The silly plot has a former football hooligan settling down after a crippling and buying an ice cream van, but problems arise when Polish gangsters warn him off their turf. The plot is as low key and unengaging as that, and most of the interest comes from Peter Barrett who works hard as the protagonist's volatile friend, brothel owner, and drug dealer. There's the odd moment of sadism or violence, but the script and characters are extremely thick and the performances hardly register. What is a surprise is that Simon Phillips appears and isn't as completely terrible as he is elsewhere.

ben_lawrence22 Terrible movie, complete waste of time. I really wouldn't bother even considering this film, there are so many greats and this wouldn't hit the top 1000. The plot was weak and the acting worse. It was just awful, I have nothing decent to say about this film at all. The only reason I finished it is because I was actually hoping that it may pick up at some point but that was a pipe dream and it went steadily down hill. The basic plot of this film revolves around an ex footballer who with baby on the way gets mixed up with some gangsters in order to make a living when his new career move is threatened. There are so many things in explained which I'm sure that if you ignore my review and actually watch this film you will see. I WOULD AVOID THIS FILM.

rivalclepto There is plenty of blood sweat and tears in this movie, but what I was impressed mostly was the ending. You know how some movies have it all then at the end its like what the heck just happened here? Are you serious? Well not in this movie. One of the better final scenes I have watched in recent memory. The film revolves around Andy and his expecting wife Stacey and Stacey's brother one of Andy's mates. Andy receives a bad injury during some hooligan antics and doctors tell him any career in sports is gone. Andy gets involved with dubious characters and his role with them starts to spiral out of control. Good acting, worthy film.
