Agreed, mainly because it's based on factual events. Essex Boys is loosely based on the same events.

Still think Essex Boys is ok though, watchable enough film like

I'm too busy concentrating on here to take notice to be honest. I'm keeping an eye on it though.

You obviously ain't looking close enough!

There's several tall-tale signs that it's a rep!

The most obvious being the interior. It ain't got Recaros! It has the normal seats but with the 90-spec fabric. Hence, it's an XR3i

Not a bad film but the best bit is with the cossie in at the end.
