Rise of the Footsoldier: More excellent Brit Crime . . .

Based on the true story of Carlton Leach and his Essex exploits from foot brawling hooligan to bouncer to gangster. We see his rise based on muscling-up, meeting the wrong blokes, and embracing the criminal life and all its crazy people.

The movie is right at 2 hours and moves quickly. Like most all Brit Crime it is compelling and realistic. Perhaps a bit too realistic as I had to turn the subtitles on. I do wish Brits would learn to speak English and forget the word cunt. (I can imagine QEII around the palace chatting with Phillip. "You're such a cunt, dear.")

This film was a real travelogue for Essex. I can't wait to relocate.

'nuff sed.
Essex is very flat, has little rain but has remnants of beautiful forest.
Around Chigwell everyone is either in crime or football.
Or so it used to seem.

  "Around Chigwell everyone is either in crime or football."
  
  Some cunts are into both! :0)
  
  Incidentally, I'm sure Prince Phillip (my favourite Royal by far) would have no problem using the 'C' word.

        ... and after a year of public distress post-crash, people started wondering why the great outpouring had happened.
        Strange.
        
        Disliked? Not over here. Here, she was a goddess. I thought the Brits fell - tinear 21:32:21 07/26/09 (1)

        upon ol' Charlie for being such a rounder and deceiving Di with that old hag from the first day of the marriage?
