Another Wannabe September 9, 2008 Sadly another wannabe gangster who wishes he was one of the Krays. The only thing this guy has in common with the Kray is the fact he is gay, not that I have anything against gays.
Donal Macintyre makes a good documentary however this time his subject is just another person who roams the streets pretending to be the saviour to everyone's troubles.
A very British gangster is a laughable title as this guy just roams around with a load of young pups, boys not men, who idolise him because they have nothing else to look up to, sad really as there are many other gangsters out there with much more style and charisma. The successful and hardened criminals of this country must have been laughing when / if they see this especially when the pups step out a fake Volvo with livery that ironically resembles a Police vehicle with some wearing badly fitted cheap BHS store suits.
Sorry this documentary deserves nothing better than ignoring as it resembles nothing of the underworld just merely a load of ASBO kids.
2 stars only for the fact that Donal Macintyre did document a laughable subject
Very poor rubbish August 25, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Well obviosuly this chap is not a very succesful gangster as he spends most of his time in prison. The product does not live up to the hype. Real gangsters woudl turn in their graves at this rubbish. Its note worthy that the people appearing in the film are all 18 year old wannabe hard men. No self respecting hard man would go within a mile of this rubbish. Save your money dont buy this garbage.

review April 11, 2008 1 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is not just a documentary that follows a gangster going about his daily life but it also tells a very in-depth story about Dominic's personal life. If you are a fan of nick broomfield , louis theroux then this will be worth the money. I originally saw this documentary a couple of years ago on channel 5 and then there was also a follow up to this story in which it focuses on the funeral of dominics brother who was also a gangster. Overall this dvd is a brilliant documentary and will have you hooked all the way through. 10/10

Yet again Donal McIntyre comes up trumps! Bravely going where no journalist would dare to go...this is a must see doc that ventures into the world of the gangster underground!
