Proper northeast movie showcasing the pride of the northeast. And one without half of the stories being made up and/or exaggerating! Must watch 10/10. Acting is class for half of the lads being up and coming. Best movie about a crime family for a long time can't wait for part 2 to be realeased if ever. MUST WATCH ESPECIALLY OF YOURE AN GEORDIE AND INTO THESE KINDS OF MOVIE GENRE. Alph Dobson video Craig Steven wraith portrayed there movie counterparts briliantly....... must see if you're part of the north east or just likea. Good old gangster movie. Peace and respect to those purchasing a copy both digital and physical.

Ok so first, this is set in 1980s/90s, yet everyone has a smartphone, silly mistake but that' sums this up from start to finish. The lead who plays Stephen is beyond wooden, and it's hard to decide what's worse, the casting or the script. The Duffer died after a fight at a blues party, stabbed in the armpit. Yet in this he dies walking the town in broad daylight. The portrayal of Vic or Viv who it's clearly meant to be is again inaccurate. There's no mention of Stephen and Vic/Viv and the Hobos nightclub incident for which were both jailed for and friends at the time. The plot jumps around and tries to cram in as much as possible in as short time as possible and the end result was laughable. Please do not ever write a script again or cast the actor in anything other than an extra role, to help me and others from wasting time and pain. A film about the north east wouldn't be complete without including Ernie, Big Billy, Panda, Conroys, but through pettiness it seems they've excluded all of the characters that could have made this script better. Even the use of Duffy was strange and random, and a wasted opportunity missed by amateur writers. Like to see someone have another try at a true crime north east film, but stay clear of all involved in this when doing so. Embarrassed for some involved, not all, as 1/2 seemed like cameos for fiends and associates. Even the ending with Charlie Kray was misleading, Charlie was a loveable rogue, a deal boy, not a gangster, it's disrespectful to his memory to give that impression, but it was also disrespectful to Vivs family how the facts were left out about why they turned on Viv, simply because Viv turned his back on them, came across as petty, like most of the film.

Believe me when I say this is possibly the worst 'film' ever made. The acting is atrocious and makes me cringe. Don't get me started on Steve Wraith. He cannot act, it's depressingly bad to witness and he needs to accept that. The American cops accent was hideously poor, how it got past the edit just shows you how amateurish this whole venture was. One thing I did enjoy though was the choreography on the fight scenes, absolutely hilarious, as if it was done by a couple of 12 year olds in their drama class or even still at break time. Basically to sum it up, I'd recommend this to nobody...

I know nothing of this story and after watching this film I still know nothing of this story. Its what you call a poor poor man's rise of footsoldier, but one of the sequels cos the original was a good film. I can forgive the bad casting, stupid accents, time scale, dumb costume, laughable fight sequences, wooden characters etc but at the heart of all this is the awful script. I see the lead character wrote this, and sadly it shows. This is my first time watching a Steve Wraith film and sadly it will be my last. The script was gcse level at best. Not one for slatting ppl in industry but this needs to be said... 'Steve, you may read this and think I don't understand the film you made, but I do and it was a badly made one. Sorry but it's true. Plus those who funded the film, are you on drugs?' Anyone who thinks this is even a fair film knows nothing about film so ignore any high reviews.

Modern cars, football kits, police uniforms and phones in what I think was the 90s, no idea what so ever what the timelines were meant to be. All the police uniforms look like they were bought off amazon and the whole films budget was spent on a trip to tenerife. Fight scenes were comically slow and laughable. All the action scenes could of used my gran as a stunt double. Silly accents and bad acting all the way through, didn't care about any of the characters or actually who they even were at some points. The original story deserves much better than what's been dished out. I've seen some bad British gangster films over the years and this is by far the worst.

A genrally awful film that is ot worth watching. There are lots of movies like this and you don't expect them to be great, but's it not hard to generate some sympathy with the villain or at least interest in their fate to pass an hour away. Not here. Dull, unexciting, and completely souless. Who could care how it ended? T is realIy is amazing to see people award it a 10, have these reviewers ever seen any other "films"? To consider this a 10, or are these planted reviews? Six hundred characretrs is far too long a limit ofr a minimum review, it s just tedious to fill in the extra chracters when a movie is so awful.

A wonderful , well written, well scripted real life crime movie set in the heart of Newcastle upon Tyne, based on true events about the Notorious sayers family and their life, upbringing, hardships, downfalls and high life. I thought all actors done a fantastic job and the videgraphy,audio and music was so in sync. Like all movies their's always ways to improve nut I am sure that will be done in future movies. As a set stating point ...I don't think it could of been any better. I am so proud to see so many talented northeast people. I really wish more people would celebrate the characters , event of those in the northeast. Nobody intends a life of crime unfortunately circumstances, culture, community can breed criminal.

A New Breed of Criminal" delves deep into the darkest corners of the gangster underworld, set against the haunting backdrop of Newcastle. This film is an unapologetically brutal exploration of life outside the law, with intense violence and chilling performances that will grip you from start to finish. Prepare for an uncompromising portrayal of the harrowing consequences that come with crossing the line. The characters' descent into darkness is depicted with merciless realism, leaving an indelible mark on your psyche. From the atmospheric setting to the bone-chilling cinematography, "A New Breed of Criminal" embraces the shadows, immersing you in a world where there is no easy way out. Brace yourself for a dark and gritty gangster thriller that pulls no punches. I was very impressed with the story line. Some very good performances. The little guy with the mohawk was spendid fun. For the limited budget its a really good effort. Do not let the jealous section of society deter you from a very good film.

Could not watch the entire movie, but what I did see was terrible. Poor acting. Poor costumes. A new breed, military procission. This a jackanory story. If you know you know. So not pay to watch this wait till its free to watch if indeed you want to watch atall. I know this movie was made on a small budget with the most of the cast having to for pay there parts, I would not class myself as an actor, but feel I could have done a better. The police outfits, the judges wig. The smart phones a cars used that where not around back when this so called notorious (🤣) family where talking the police!

Waste of time. Very amateur filming and I understand having to not use proper names but to have 'vic' portrayed as a skinny cockney is emabarassing when anyone who knows the story will know who the real man was and he was a monster in size. Steve wraith isn't an actor he should stick to what he knows. Venis seemed a good choice to play Duffy would love to see a full blown movie on his story. Some of fight scenes are comical air punches is an understatement.could have been something brilliant if the base story was impartial to include the whole of the Tyneside criminal story. From Duffy viv the conroys etc shame.
