More real then GSH but not better

When I first watched Green Street Hooligans, I thought is was a great film but I forgot the reason why I looked it up but I read that The Firm was much better. But I would have to disagree.

The movie is Inter City Crew, a British football hooligan firm, which is lead by Clive "Bex" Bissel, played by Gary Oldman, who is trying to unite the three main firms in England to create and lead a national firm for the European Championships. But the other two firms don't want to join together and if they didn't they didn't feel Bex was the man to lead them. But Bex did convince then to join but only if his firm beat their firms. So the rest of the movie is him and his firm preparing for battle.

Acting and writing is par for a TV movie and is nothing special even if Gary Oldman is staring in it.
Writing and sound isn't great but again it's a TV movie so not to surprising.

While I enjoyed the grittier more realistic feel I personally like the more stylized version of GSH.
