    Surely you'd have to compare Green Street and The Football Factory rather than the business??

    Only one winner in that fight - Football Factory miles better! When Hollywood try and tackle a largely working class, English culture it's doomed to failure - even with the help of a supposed former hooligan. Don't get me wrong Green Street was a laugh but mainly because of the accents and realism not the film itself. Plus everytime I see Elijah Wood I have flashbacks to him in LOTR - not exactly fitting in the context!!

    Haven't seen the Business yet but will definately be getting it when it comes out on DVD, the Nick Love / Danny combination is spot on. If anyone hasn't watched the audio commentary on the Football Factory DVD i'd recommend it - fucking hilarious!!!

    i thought F F was also good! but green street is better imo! i think more research went into green street i.e the firms etc.

    some of the accents were shocking like :lol:

    Green St is a good film but like has been mentioned the acting from the gang leader is shite as is his accent. u just cant imagin him leading a firm.

    I thought the kid who played "Dober" or whatever he was called (the one who betrayed them to the Milwall lot) was a excellent actor.....
