Movie Reviews: The Firm!
The Firm
Remaking a classic movie is a brave move, but Football Factory director Nick Love has pulled it off in style. The focus shifts from the charismatic but psychopathic leader of West Ham’s firm Bex (played by Gary Oldman in the original) to wannabe footie casual Dom, who’s desperate to be accepted into the group. Laugh-out-loud funny and set to a classic ’80s soundtrack, The Firm is a winner.

Fast And Furious
(DVD, Blu-ray) A storming return to the street racing franchise for Vin Diesel and the original cast, who mostly bailed after the first film in 2001. Vehicle hijacker Dom Toretto (Diesel) and his former nemesis, FBI agent Brian (Paul Walker), go undercover in a drug-smuggling gang – but the plot’s of secondary concern. Are the cars cool, the women hot and the stunts amazing? Yes, yes and yes.
