- Synopsis:
"Marching Powder" sees the long-anticipated reunion of acclaimed director Nick Love and long-term collaborator and national treasure Danny Dyer. This isn't your average 'rom-com'...Set in the irreverent and profane world of cult classic The Football Factory, 'Marching Powder' is a hilarious, poignant and action-packed big screen drama that follows the story of Jack (Danny Dyer), an aging, drug-taking football hooligan who feels increasingly irrelevant in today's society as he struggles to keep his family together. Hooked on drugs and adrenaline; and struggling to resist the pull of his gang of fellow football fans, Jack is arrested after some violent matchday exploits and given six weeks to turn his life around, or else face a long spell in prison. Juggling his marriage, his mates, his hard-nut bully of a father-in-law and his wayward 25-year-old stepbrother, Jack tries to get his life back on-track but slowly his world starts to spiral out of control. There's romance, there's comedy, but this ain't no 'rom-com'...this is real life, on the line. - Actors:

Marching Poo-der - Marching Powder review by AER
Danny Dyer is back from TV land to hit UK cinema screens with this unfunny comedy about an ageing football hooligan. It's a shame as it's determinedly anti-woke stance would've been used to puncture pompous attitudes to the working-class but it misses easy targets left right and centre. What could've upset a lot of liberals by having something to say, fails to be clever. It's sweary, right-wing, embarrassing and has maybe two lines that raise a smile. This also works as a sequel to director Nick Love's earlier FOOTBALL HOOLIGAN, you jils.
This particular liberal-minded viewer was disappointed there was no fight in the dog. Just bluster.
PS: My local Big Issue seller was telling me he'd gone to the cinema for the first time in years and his mate chose this for them to see. I quote, "Marching Powder put me off going watching films for life, mate..." It's not quite that bad. But you get the picture.
