Got to be Football factory for me, a much better film and shows football violence more like it actually is, unlike in Green Street.
I mean come on, how can 8 West ham lads get a result against 50 mob handed Manc Reds?
LOL.
And football factory for me does a bit more.
Another great film, not completely on football violence, is Rise of the Footsoldier. Best movie brought out last year for me.
And on youtube. Watch something called 'It's A Casual Life'
I like this thread!

Both are decent films, but Football Factory just edges it for me. It portrays working class britain in a brutally honest light, and the commentary by Danny Dyer is a good insight into the mind of a football nutter

Also, the storyline is more believable and less hollywood, Green Street is slightly OTT

My misses likes both, myself, i think they are both bullshit that didnt deserve the plastic they were scribed to.

By the way do agree with Mark, there are some good sounds on the soundtrack.

Never seen football factory, but i agree with sidekick, green street was more hollywood and it kind of glamourized the violence, like it was ok.

I never got the impression that it is very dangerous (and stupid IMO!)

Agree with CJ 100% - both shite films, but I like the look of the FF soundtrack. Swastika Eyes is a class tune. Casting Elijah Wood as a football hooligan is just laughable...I mean, my mum could beat seven shades out of that guy!

I've never seen a decent football hooliganism film, "ID" being another shocker. There are a few good documentaries though. Trouble On the Terraces I would definitely recommend. The image of a black Leeds fan sporting a huge afro with a dart lodged in it (yep, someone chucked a dart into the opposition fans' end and the only thing that saved this guy from it landing in the top of his noggin was his enormous afro!!!) sticks in my mind! It would I guess!

Football Factory by a country mile. It's much more realistic. Green Street is very Hollywood and as Llanelli Jack said, how the fook can 8 West Ham Boys get a result against 50 mancs??!! Plus Pete Dunham's cockney accent was shite in Green Street. I agree with Llanelli Jack on Rise of the Foot Soldier - brilliant film

Football factory

Greenstreet for me!

Even though football factory is hilarious!
