Like two tribal villages meeting at the edge of their territories, Green Street Hooligans opens in the London Underground with the Green Street Elite football firm shouting taunts at a rival firm, the Yids, The prolog bursts apart with both firms beating up each other before the film cuts away to Cambridge, MA and Harvard University, where a harsh (but lost) faced Matt Buckner (Elijah Wood) is boxing his supplies and is kicked out of the Journalism department by an armed guard. He returns to his dorm his room-mate is connected Jeremy Van Holden, has let Matt take the fall for his own cocaine habit. He stashed his coke in Matt’s locker; and Matt, who has just weeks before graduation and a impressive career in journalism, and does not defend himself. He’s been expelled. The Van Holdens are impossible to fight and Jeremy offers Matt $10,000 for his trouble, which he refuses (although it is doesn’t show whether Matt takes some of the money for emergency). Jeremy tells Matt, he’ll hook him up after he graduates. Matt calls his father, a world-renowned journalist, but gets his voice mail. He’s on assignment in Afghanistan.
That movie is one of my favorite movies ever. I always will have time to watch that movie because it is extremely realistic and enjoyable, because it it really nice to see what happens behind the football green grass. A Voice over begins the meat of the film, while Matt travels to see his sister, Shannon, who lives in London with her husband, Steve and baby son, Ben. When he arrived, they pass the scene of the tottenham and west ham hooligans fight last night. "Was there a terrorist attack?" Matt asks. Shannon explains the enthusiasm of Football and warns Matt not to call it Soccer.
Arriving at Shannon’s, Matt meets Steve, who has previous plans that evening with Shannon. So, when his brother Pete arrives (Pete is the current head of the Green Street Elite) to tap some money and a lift, he bribes Pete to take Matt to the West Ham Football Game. Pete is unwilling, but he needs the cash. Steve warns Pete not to bring any harm on the guy and also gives the hundred quid to Matt warning him to keep it from Pete; to use it at the Pub to buy beer for the lads. It doesn’t take Pete long to negotiate for half the money, but Matt refuses. When Matt tries to kick Pete (and Pete manages to quickly dump Matt on the ground), Pete takes a buff to him and settles on taking him along. Matt says that was his first fight. "Do you call that a fight?" He does warn Matt before they go into The Abbey (the GSE’s home pub) to not mention his father is a Journalist ("Don’t care for journos, do we, although your Da’s probably the exception to the rule); and to keep his mouth shut, as Yanks are not welcomed either.
As they march down to Greet Street and West Ham Stadium, the Firm sings their song, "I’m forever Blowing Bubbles," and chant in unison "United - United" clapping their hands above their head. The shot is stirring and iconic and will echo at the film’s end. Bovver manages to taunt the opposing firm, the Birmers (Birmingham), who are itching for a fight after the match. Matt heads off alone toward Shannon’s and is chased and caught by the Birmers, who are about to rip his mouth open with a credit card, when the GSE intervene. There’s a violent scuffle. When Matt turns to leave, Pete tells him that "when it starts, you stand your ground." "But I don’t know how to fight." "Focus on someone you hate!"
Elijah Wood is this guy that came from the Harvard because the collage found cocaine in his locker. He is peaceful guy that doesn’t get into trouble but everything changes when he goes to his sister Shannon he because a tough trouble maker and joins the strongest hooligan firm in London. Charlie Hunnam is known as the crazy guy that always gets into fights and he is a huge fan of the (hammers) west ham. He is the brother of Pete the husband of Shannon. Marc warren is Pete he is a really quite man that really cares about his family and tries to keep them safe, but when he was a teenager he use to be the leader of the west ham firm but he grew out of it after he saw his enemies son die in a hooligan fight. Leo Gregory is the maddest one of them all he is the firm leader and the best friend Charlie Hunnam. But in the begging when he sees Elijah wood he doesn’t really talk to Charlie anymore.
