Review of Rise of the Footsoldier (2007) by Tuomas R — 07 Oct 2008

Kelvollinen elÃ¤mÃ¤nkertaleffa Carltonin vaiheista kohti Essexin kovinta kÃ¤rkeÃ¤. Valitettavan pian futisympyrÃ¤t vaihtuivat yÃ¶kerhoihin ja huumeisiin eikÃ¤ kaverista oikein saa kunnon otetta elokuvan missÃ¤Ã¤n vaiheessa.

Onhan nÃ¤itÃ¤ nÃ¤hty ennenkin...
