Watched it last night and must admit it is probably one of the most enjoyable films I've seen this year, it takes a fairly light hearted look at hooliganism and the story seems to flow along nicely, I would have preferred it to be more serious at times and also longer, still after some of the junk I've watched lately I'm not complaining too much.
Thoughts?

"Do you know stanley?"
:D
Brilliant film.
Only saw it a couple of weeks ago after two pom mates had been rabbiting on about it for months - funnily enough, one's from chelsea, and the other from liverpool.
Given the state of the euro championship, they're not speaking to each other at the moment haha
;)
Kinda like a Guy Ritchie style (when he was good anyway) take on soccer and hooligans in the UK.

Great film and fairly realistic as well. There's another film coming out soon with Elijah Wood in it called "Hooligan" (I think) where he plays some American student in London who falls in with the ICF at West Ham.
