"Football Hooligans" - the growth of a man

Matt:
Gentle, kind, weak.
At first, I was afraid to stand my ground, afraid of conflict. Framed by roommates and expelled from school.
By Peter's side, he found his own beliefs, and finally began to stick to his own position.

Peter:
Rough, persistent, bloody.
Mouthful of Fuck, smashing opposing fans in the head with a beer bottle.
He will also give up his seat to a woman in a gentlemanly manner on the subway.
In the end, he took revenge to "defend the glory" and died to protect others.

On the one hand, I see myself in Matt, and I see that there are times when I dare not stand firm.
At the same time, I saw Peter's dedication to belief and cherishing of glory.
Saw Matt's upbringing as a man.

On the other hand, I also saw that what Peter insisted and defended was so vain and meaningless.
Their behavior is bloody, but it doesn't make sense, the air is swelled with adrenaline.
(Sorry, I really think it's childish to fight and destroy each other because of the teams I follow.) The
constant fighting evolved into an escalation of hatred, which can only be ended with more blood.

Faith and glory they hold.
Just like the bubbles mentioned in the movie, it is very beautiful and beautiful, but it is light and meaningless.

In my opinion, this is actually a movie about British young and dangerous.
Everyone gained self-affirmation through violent profligacy and firm belief.

Matt's life experience should be called Male Initiation.

    There seems to be a certain implication at the end, that is, people should have the courage to strive for and pursue things, and dare to defend their dignity, but they should never resort to violence, because violence cannot solve any problems.
