Essex Boys  The New Generation

Essex Boys The New Generation

In December 1995 three key members of the infamous Essex Boys firm were executed in their ... more

Range Rover after being lured to a deserted farm
track by the promise of a lucrative drug deal. The
police predicted that the void left as a result of
the murders would cause a gangland war that would
extend across London and much of the south-east.
"Essex Boys  The New Generation" tells the
chilling true story of the gang that destroyed
everything that stood in their way to take control
of their fallen predecessors' drug empire. With a
reputation for ruthless violence  the gang
expanded and protected their drug-dealing
operation with a terrifying combination of
bloodshed and intimidation. In February 2001 
tensions within their circle boiled over and
resulted in one member being shot dead. The police
investigation was met with a wall of silence and
for three years it seemed as if the case would
remain unsolved.A leading member of the gang was
eventually charged  but in an unexpected twist he
became the prosecution's star witness. While a
murder conviction was finally secured  the real
truth surrounding the murder and the gang's
psychotic crimes has never been revealed. Now  for
the first time  former Essex Boys member Bernard
O'Mahoney tells the full  extraordinary story of
the rise and fall of the gang that took over the
Essex underworld from him and his associates.

Essex Boys - I was there

Advantages: Great film based around true events
Disadvantages: Not overly memorable

...club and drug culture of East London and Essex were I suppose reasonably accurate. Certainly the writers and producers had researched things and Sean Bean did give a reasonably good performance.

Not the most memorable film but one which holds a particular significance to me.

Raw taste of English Underworld

...involved with the gangsters in Essex who controls nightclub security and hence supplies their shipments of illicit substances. Sean Bean plays Jason a nut case, who has been inside for 5 years and didn't tell any tales on his chums whilst doing time, but comes back in a bad mood because he doesn't get much reward for his silence and annoyed because all his boys are minted. THIS IS A TRUE STORY. It’s about an absolute hooligan (played very well ...

There are just different scenes of violence and Bean re-establishing himself and making more money and taking over from different gangs. In these scenes you meet new characters, Beans sidekick (played by the bloke who robbed the train and did one to Acapulco with ...

Essex Boys will be boys.

Advantages:
Disadvantages:

...toss up between MI2 and Essex Boys, Essex Boys won. The film is derived from the Essex Range Rover murders case from three or four years ago. The potential for a good story was good but I came away dissappointed. I you know the Southend area you'll me more interested in picking out local landmarks than the story line. The only decent character was the driver Billy Wizz. Sean Bean (the star) tried too hard to be Vinnie Jones, some of the humour ...

Nice Flick!!

Advantages: Good performances
Disadvantages: Another 'Lahndon' Gangsta Flick

...an action/thriller based in the Essex underworld. It takes its main event - a multiple murder in a Range Rover - from a real event and puts a good story line around it. It is not the same league as Lock Stock but is still a good entertaining film. Sean Bean is very credible as the Hard Man, and has some good up-and-coming actors and actresses supporting him. The twists and turns in the plot offer plently of brain action as well as mindless violence ...

No Story

Advantages: I got a pack of tortilla's
Disadvantages: No story line

I went to see Essex boys with my other half last Saturday as he really wanted to see it, I had to miss the chance of around 5 drinks in the pub, we bought our tickets and walked into the small cinema room which then made me think this film isn't going to be good, the film began and after 15 minutes I just wanted to run out of the room, it had no story line, and they tried to put on the Essex accents its was so crap (excuse my language) and then they ...

sean bean can't do gangster

Advantages: all in all good film
Disadvantages: hard to follow at times, sean bean not very convincing

I watched essex boys last night and the only other gangster flick i have seen before is lock stock so i was kinda expecting the same thing - wrong! It is based around a true story of a murder in essex in which 3 blokes were found mysteriously dead in a range rover. The plot is based around billy whizz who acts as the driver for 3 gangsters(one being sean bean)and he finds out what life is really like on the other side. There are some twists and turns ...
...the storyline away! There is a bit of comedy in it but its very dry. I didn't find it very gruesome or compelling in fact i actually lost the plot a couple of times. I didn't think sean bean was very convincing as a gangster either but then again the same could be said of vinnie jones but that worked. Alex Kingston (better known as Elizabeth in E R) was very good in it though as a gangster girlfriend but she couldn't quite get the cockney accent ...
