this is for me...
1 - Escape to Victory
2 - Mean Machine
3 - Fever Pitch/When Saturday Comes
(i haven't seen The Damned Utd yet)
Pick top 3 thats your fav football film....
Crane
The Platypus
Ninja
Goal 2
Goal 3
Wes Brown
Does Looking for Eric count? The Damned United is the best though.
One Night in Turin is ace too, documentary though.
The Platypus
Crane
Is that the one in which he finds some old shit boots and they make him class? Remember always renting that from the local Spar.
Wes Brown
Ninja
They're a special kind of shite.
Something to be said for the 3rd film where they decide that they'd scrap all the main characters and focus on some nobody cunts, the first one probably earns the honour of being describable as 'watchable', and that's about the best you can say about the series.

The Firm is good too, but football plays even less of a role in that.
The Platypus

An Arsenal fan that doesn't like Fever Pitch? What a cunt.
Most football films are shite, especially the more recent ones. Fever Pitch will always be my favourite because it brings back so many great memories from that night at Anfield.

All the hooligan related films are as they're so fake, watch something like Rise Of The Football soldier. Only has a smallish football related section, but the whole film is based on a true story. Is one of my favourite films of all time, due to a lot the story (drug scene in 90's Essex) being based right next to where i live.

I haven't seen it, so go fuck yourself.

As I've said on here before, it's not half bad if you go into it knowing that it depicts football hooliganism about as realistically as porn films depict plumbing.

i think you should watch, you will love it.

Away Days is the best football film related to hooliganism imo. Captures the culture of the casual scene quite well (when it kicked off, set in the late 70s) i.e music, drugs, clothing - unlike Green Street, The Firm, and Football Factory that just goes for violence and swearing.
Rise is a great movie though
The Platypus
It just seems to celebrate violence in a weird and infantile way.

And why is that.

It's just shit. It goes on for way too long, the dialogue is cringeworthy ("this Turk was about to find out what it's like to be on the wrong end of a kebab knife" is one prime example that's always made me laugh) and much of the gore is completely unnecessary. Also, why does the main character barely feature in the last forty minutes of the film? It seemed to introduce a new character every half an hour and go off at a complete tangent from time to time. It plays up to East End stereotypes in a lazy way. It's just a boring film that offers nothing and drags on for two fucking hours.

If anyone wants to see the actual aftermath pics of the essex murders, click the link in the spoiler.
Nasty stuff, you see the car pics with all the blood on the range etc and then close ups of the bodies in the lab with half of the heads blown off and shotgun wounds. Don't click the link unless you're a naughtyyyy geeeezaaaa.

The second to last picture kinda made me laugh, before I quickly remembered what I was looking at.
