Rise of the Footsoldier 4: Marbella
Freshly released from prison, Pat Tate returns to his Essex nightclub, his hunger for retribution still burning. He heads for Marbella to avenge those who jailed him for five long years. In Spain, Pat cannot pass up the chance to land the biggest drug deal of his life. He enlists his Essex allies Tony and Craig to deliver the cash to Marbella and seal the score. But Craig, as unreliable as ever, turns a simple plane trip into a sweeping road odyssey packed with trickery and danger. Meanwhile Tony frets about getting back to England in time to stand beside his best friend Nigel Benn at the boxing match of his life. While waiting in Marbella, Pat proceeds with the violent revenge he has craved for years. The vendettas are carried out, and Tony and Carlton walk Nigel Benn out to what proves to be one of the most tragic fights in history. But the drugs they bring back seem to be a bad batch and bring them more trouble than they could have anticipated.

An improvement on 3. <em>'Rise of the Footsoldier 4: Marbella'</em>, like two of its three predecessors, isn't good. However, this one is more of a less serious outing for the series. It still features the, let's be honest, cringey wannabe-esque gangster stuff, but this one probably has the most comedic intentions. All the issues from the earlier films remain, in truth. I never really cared for the main plot, though I didn't have a bad time watching it unfold - it's lame, but just about watchable. My 'favourite' part of this is the, unofficially titled, Adventures of Tony & Craig - they practically go on a road trip and it is amusing. The ending is kinda humorous, too. Cast-wise it's, like all of the <em>'Rise of the Footsoldier'</em> productions, average at best. Everyone gives a forgettable performance unfortunately, Craig Fairbrass has enough about him to lead satisfactorily but there isn't a true standout. Cool seeing boxer Conor Benn portray father Nigel though. I see a fifth film is on course to land later this year. It's actually impressive that they've managed to craft this many stories from the one, true life, event. I plan on checking it out when it's released.
