I used to work in a video store in the olden days, and this movie was a little known gem that I recommended to customers.
Everything clicks in this movie. The story and characters are great. Having had friends who were into football hooliganism, in my experience everything in this movie feels very realistic.
The cast is good all the way through, especially Reece Dinsdale in the lead who delivers a real powerhouse performance. It's strange, I thought this movie might do to him what Romper Stomper did to Russell Crowe, but I can't remember seeing him in anything but this movie.
Don't bother with the sequel which has absolutely nothing to do with this movie.
