Mean Machine (15) Review

Overall Rating

Lots of genuinely funny moments throughout and the suprisingly good acting of Vinnie Jones.

Not one as long as you are prepared not to take the film too seriously.

This entertaining film defies many people's low expectations due to a impressive and versatile performance from Vinnie Jones and a storyline that could easily have been far fetched and predictable, but manages to be gritty, funny and contain the odd twist.
The notorious Mr Jones stars as Danny, a former England football captain who gets jailed but eventually becomes a hero in prison by uniting the splendid array of fellow cons and inspiring them to victory in a match against the guards.
While not a classic, i would recommend this as an ideal film to bring a smile to your face.
