Fantasia Film Festival 2014: THE HOOLIGAN FACTORY Review by Ous Zaim




A self-aware, surreal parody that takes itself lightly through out. Ridiculous and funny, the laughs in the audience was a constant echoing force. With touches of TRAINSPOTTING and FIGHT CLUB, hit on the head with a mallet by a demented cartoony spirit, FACTORY is a refreshing take on English soccer clubs. Ironic enough, and a huge thanks from this non-sporty nerdling, we don't see a single sliver of actual soccer in the entire flick. Second irony, the entire hour and a half was one big pissing contest, yet there are homo-erotic jokes sprinkled from the get-go. Buy yourself a ticket and go laugh.
