02/25/2017 MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS Terri Dwyer plays the wife of the protagonist. Her main scene in the film is near the end, during a rather gruesome scene, Terri is bound and gagged with black tape against a wall and makes it very clear by trying to scream to attract attention but her sounds are muffled through the tape Although she is told that she will not be heard, the black tape used to gag her may have been added to represent the 'damsel in distress' role that she was playing as that is quite common to 'gag a damsel' to 'shut her up' and to show that the antagonist is rather arrogant as it comes across that the only reason he gagged her, was because he didn't want to hear her voice and not to keep her from attracting attention which is what it is usually used for. Terri plays this role quite well (especially at the end of the film) where you really do feel for her when kidnapped and then seen bound and gagged. She controls her pace very well as for example, she is mostly struggling frantically and trying to scream but when she is being talked to directly she slows it down and becomes silent creating a more intense and suspenseful feel as she is staring right into the protagonists eyes and stops struggling/stops trying to talk through the gag that is over her mouth or when a football is being kicked at her she whimpers next to the wall. However, there are some downsides to the acting here. I feel that she was put in the correct position as she was not completely held down by her bonds so she could still struggle a lot giving the viewer a bit of hope meaning that she could possibly get out, but I feel as if the tape over her mouth should have been I guess 'over her mouth more' as you can make out kind of clearly what Terri was saying when she was screaming and I think that if you couldn't hear her words as well, it would make the scene more intense and make the antagonist look more arrogant as he would have silenced her completely, so when she did try to scream/talk in the movie, it would be more muffled meaning people would probably try to make out what she was saying and feel her desperateness a lot more. Shortly after this Terri has gasoline tipped over her, while she is still bound and gagged and she continues to struggle and let out muffled screams more frantically. When the gasoline is lit on fire, there is a side view so that you can only see the flames and the antagonist and the only thing from Terri you can hear is the muffle screams coming taped mouth. These fade implying that she has been killed. See more 09/11/2016 The acting was decent but everything else was pretty bad. The title doesn't really even make any sense because it's not about hooliganism at all.. Just because they robbed a Football Stadium it doesn't make it a movie about Hooliganism it was more like a revenge gangster movie. See more Read all reviews
