There are films such as Greet Street, and Football Factory, which has encouraged football hooliganism. It seems that it is at its worst. Many young boys who watch these films, aspire to act like these characters, who see that no consequences come for their actions. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/343408.stm
“Football hooliganism is making a comeback. After spending years and millions of pounds trying to turn the game into a family-friendly activity, authorities have admitted that violence at matches is on the increase.”

But can we really blame films for our actions? As long as violence, drug and alcohol abuse is part of our culture, it will continue to happen. Films are mimicking our society, and making them seem very life like.
