Really Surprised!

Let's be realistic.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

This film is pathetically awful, the main cast are just terrible actors, and not to mention effing annoying!! to try and sell this film as the "New breed of Essex boy" is just embarrassing, Pat Tate and Tony Tucker had many powerful friends, that would, lets face it rip these annoying kids to pieces if they strutted around like this as the new Top Boys! Script is terrible, the acting as I mentioned is terrible, the casting is awful, even the scenery was god awful, I felt like I was watching a re-run of the inbetweeners movie where they all became drug dealers and tried selling themselves as feared gangsters...yep I said it, picture Jay and Will holding a gun, selling coke and dropping the C-Bomb like it's a hot potato, yep that's how bad this film is. My advice is go paint a wall and watch it dry as that would be more entertaining than this film, or in fact stick hot needles in your eyes whilst watching that paint dry!! I think everyone involved in this film needs to go stand in the corner and think about the errors of their behaviour in bringing this film to any screens!! Very poor effort, I'm actually giggling to myself again thinking about the three brothers trying to act as Essex boy gangsters haha! Avoid this film like the plague!!! If you ignore this and watch it, well you've been warned!!!

When buying online from - er - a certain large online retailer, I often first view the bad product reviews. The content of that 1 star review gives me a chance to judge the relevance of the comment.It's often a similar story with IMDb. Everyone is entitled to an opinion, but shouldn't that opinion be reinforced by some knowledge of the subject?Judge then yourselves, reviews with phrases such as "I watched 10 minutes of this". Would anyone take a review of The Godfather or Shawshank Redemption seriously if the reviewer had only seen the wedding scene up to Johnny's arrival, or Andy's arrival at the jail? If you didn't watch, your views are irrelevant.Anyway, I did watch all of EBR, and yes, it wasn't an epic movie, but the acting of the leads was good, and the story was OK. Billy Murray was as you'd expect (perhaps Alan Ford was unavailable).

Wow, i am in shock at how bad this movie is, the original Essex Boys movie was quite good and i was looking forward to watching this follow-up. I do not often write reviews on IMDb but i found this movie so horrendous, that i just have to warn people, this movie is a joke.The 4 main characters are supposed to be gangsters, but they are skinny, short, and barely older than teenagers. Anyway, these 4 poorly chosen actors are supposed to be playing the parts of underworld gangsters, so they have to act aggressive and intimidating, and that's where the problems start, none of them are scary, none of them can act, and when they start shouting and acting hard, you just don't believe them. If you was out in a club, pub, or anywhere, and you heard one of these characters shouting there head off and trying to act tough, everyone would point at them and LAUGH.So to sum it all up, if your looking for a good gangster movie, this is not it, you would be better off watching Casino or Goodfellas, again.

Having seen all of the previous "Essex Boys" related films, I watched this with a degree of trepidation. Surely there wasn't going to be yet more previously untold material to surface here? Thankfully this is a fictional spin on the infamous story of the Rettendon murders. It packs a punch in parts and contains some humorous moments along the way. Although the acting leaves a lot to be desired in parts it is still worth watching as it contains a few unexpected twists throughout. The four new breed Essex Boys reminded me of the yuppie drug dealers in "Lock Stock....". They are certainly not your typical drug dealers / gangland characters who would instill fear in anyone coming across them as is normally the case in these sorts of films. I found that the film passed quickly and kept my attention throughout. Although it is not the grittiest of films I would still say give it a watch to all those who like British gangland films.
