ID (1994)

John, an ambitious young copper, is sent undercover into the hardcore football gangs to track down the 'generals' - the shadowy figures who orchestrate the violence. Gradually, the hard drinking, hard fighting macho world - where Saturday's match and Saturday's rumble are all that matters - proves irresistible and John slowly finds himself turning into one of the thugs he has been sent to destroy.

Reese Dinsdale stars in this British drama, morphing from one side of the law to the other in a gradual downfall of sanity. We follow his rise through the underworld as he even surpasses veteran thug Martin, played by Sean Pertwee, to become a top boy at his firm.

With a believable cast, also including Warren Clarke and Philip Glenister among others, and a great script, this film is a series of well constructed scenes that renders it better than your average made for television movie and an enjoyable ride of a story.
