RISE OF THE FOOTSOLDIER: ORIGINS

FILM

OUT 3 SEPTEMBER CINEMAS

The fifth instalment in the Rise Of The Footsoldier series - surely he should have reached the top by now? But in lieu of an answer, here we get a prequel, showing how Tony Tucker (Terry Stone) returns from the Falklands War in the ’80s to become a hard-nut doorman, then starts dealing drugs and goes into partnership with series mainstay Pat Tate (Craig Fairbrass). There’s no spiffy The Irishman-style digital de-aging here, only dodgy wigs, clanging C-words, gleeful violence and Vinnie Jones wading into the fracas… sorry, franchise. Jamie Graham
