Wow, i am in shock at how bad this movie is, the original Essex Boys movie was quite good and i was looking forward to watching this follow-up. I do not often write reviews on IMDb but i found this movie so horrendous, that i just have to warn people, this movie is a joke.The 4 main characters are supposed to be gangsters, but they are skinny, short, and barely older than teenagers. Anyway, these 4 poorly chosen actors are supposed to be playing the parts of underworld gangsters, so they have to act aggressive and intimidating, and that's where the problems start, none of them are scary, none of them can act, and when they start shouting and acting hard, you just don't believe them. If you was out in a club, pub, or anywhere, and you heard one of these characters shouting there head off and trying to act tough, everyone would point at them and LAUGH.So to sum it all up, if your looking for a good gangster movie, this is not it, you would be better off watching Casino or Goodfellas, again.

I managed to watch about 15 minutes of this rubbish before finally turning it off. Acting is terrible and the storyline seems even worse.Having watched the original Essex Boys, I was hoping for something similar, but this is just embarrassing.I don't know whether the 4 main characters had to audition for the part, as there acting is terrible. I was actually cringing watching them trying to act!!I was looking forward to another Lock Stock type film, or at least a half decent script, but this was truly shocking. Im annoyed that I wasted even 15 minutes of my time watching it.Absolute rubbish

Review: This is your typical East End wannabe gangster movie about 4 drug dealers that mess with the wrong people. It's connected to the famous Range Rover killings, which they have made quite a few English movies about, but it starts off well and then it goes downhill. The acting Is just like all the other English gangster movies that you have seen, and the storyline is full of drugs, sex and violence which we have grown to expect from movies in this genre. I stuck with the movie to find out what was going to happen with the 3 brothers and the drug maker, and there are a couple of twists that make it interesting, but it's nothing amazing. It seemed quite low budget and I couldn't help thinking that the boys should have left the country from the time that they knew that someone was after them or when the cops started to put pressure on them. They didn't even try to hide, which was a bit strange, and they just stayed in there flat when they new that people wanted to murder them. Anyway, it's watchable but not one that you will rewind. Round-Up: I usually get ticked off when I see the usual faces in these English gangster movies, but this movie really needed some of the old tough nuts that we have seen many times before. Billy Murray is stuck in jail throughout the movie so you hardly see him at all. The 4 main characters just seem like a bunch of kids trying to play a big mans game, and they just get too big for there boots. To be honest, I don't know why they didn't get murdered earlier on in the movie because there not really underworld material.Budget: $1million Worldwide Gross: N/AI recommend this movie to people who are into there English gangster movies which are full of sex, drugs & violence. 3/10

A true sequel to The Fall of the Essex Boys, but a completely separate movie that is in no way dependent on the earlier film from just 10 months ago. A well run bank job starts things off on a great note, and the whole time you are given a story tellers perspective like The Usual Suspects, just the style not that there is anything untrue being said. Really nice use of clips from the earlier film as shots from the "Original" Essex Boys. Good cast really felt like they were all putting in the effort, and I was able to believe in them, and hate them all at times.I Enjoyed this movie for the action, some comedy, and a lot of great Bro love. They are so tight. So I would say give this one a go anytime, but it's not for kids; unless you just leave them unsupervised all the time at home anyway, then what do you care right? There is a lot of the bad word "See You Next Tuesday" in this though it is from the UK, but there is a lot so be warned.
