I've read some rotten reviews of this film and I know it's not going to win an Oscar anytime soon, but can't see the need for such vitriol. It's what you'd expect: a film about rival gangs in a prison competing for money, drugs, respect and the studied myopia of corrupt prison officers. It's all action and you can't really get bored watching it. But what makes me want to watch it again is the soundtrack. Just a handful of hardcore punk tracks, and the last one is called "Sometimes Anti Social but Always Anti-Fascist" - an anti-fascist anthem at the end of a football film works for me! From a female point of view, Timothy V. Murphy's fake Russian accent is quite sexy. Not rocket science but worth a view over Saturday night's takeaway.

After the events in the surprisingly fun first movie, the green street boys find themselves in prison with their arch rivals Millwall. Now this depiction of prison is about as believable as an episode of Oz, but it is non stop action with fight after fight, with minor sub plots involving a crooked correctional guard. There aren't any twists and turns to the story and the ending you can see coming a mile away. If you like stupid action movies then this might be worth watching.

If you like raw violence that strikes you so real that you could be there, then you will really enjoy this one.

This One Was Not as Good as The First But Hey What Sequel Usually is. Worth The Watch and The Price Was Right,Fast Shipping and it Was as Advertised.

Vender was great fast and careful, but this movie is terrible. Not even close to original as far as action and entrigue.
