A Harvard student gets wrongfully expelled from school when he is caught taking the fall for his friend who deals drugs. Rather than fight the expulsion and make his friend take the blame he goes along with it. He takes a trip to see his sister in London and makes some interesting friends.
With these friends he learns about how big of fans of football (soccer) they are and introduces him to the "gang" he leads.
This is a pretty good movie with a couple of well know cast members. I give this movie a 4 out of 5.

This is a great movie with a well known cast that has a little bit of the same feeling as the movie dejavu. It replays the same scenario from several perspectives and shows the events leading up to the same scene for each person involved.
It has a little bit of an independent film feel but like I said, has a well known cast.
This movie is about the actions leading up to a series of events from the perspectives of a homeless man once a news anchor, 2 agents leaving a suspects house, 2 gang bangers seeking revenge for a friend and the guy they are after, a bike messenger, a shop keeper and her boyfriend, a young man trying to get medicine for his sick brother and a police officer who lost his gun.
