Factual errors: When Matt leaves Boston, a Delta Airlines jet is shown taking off, implying he is on board it. He is then shown arriving and an announcement can be heard saying welcome to Heathrow. At the time of the movie, Delta Airlines did not serve Heathrow.

This is the best new movie of any genre that I've seen in many months.
The film really drew me into its world of neighborhood pubs, football supporters, and the dirt-in-the-cracks reality of London. The violence is believable, realistic, graphic, and frightening. As are the consequences of that violence. This film does not glorify hooliganism, it portrays it honestly.
Hooligans doesn't preach about mob mentality, or strength in numbers, rather it gives credit to the strength in the individual that lives up to his commitment to his friends though he may suffer because of it. (That's the best way I could word it without including a spoiler.)
