That was an excellent one.

n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

The movie really just wants to entertain people.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

Most homicides are solved in the first 48hours. A procedure to solve homicides is to back-track the last 48hours of a victims life. That's what this movie is. The lead character gets out of jail and is picked up by his doomed friend. Who speeds and drives recklessly getting them in an accident. The accident leads to a confrontation that they back down from. once word get out they back down, they must do something to defend their honor. Things get way out of control from there. The hand-held NYPD blue camera style is great. Well acted the character and events were believable, the way this played out in MANCHESTER (gunchester)is the same way is played out in ATLANTA, COMPTON, my CITY, and everywhere else where young men fight and die to protect their "REP".

Firstly, I have to say, I didn't like this film. So why then, you might think, have i given it a good rating. It is down solely to the respect i have for it. Never before have i seen a film portray the tough life that is experienced by many in the tough streets of London or anywhere else for that matter, quite so realistically. At no point does it become unnatural or over the top, it always seems to draw you in because of its sense of realism. Like i have said, i did not like this film. Ordinarily this is not my cup of tea, the type of film i find myself fast forwarding because there are certain parts i don't want to see. However, I give my full congratulations to the director because i can see that it is a genuinely good film that i can respect, if not like.

The most immediate thing that struck me about this film was it's perfect imitation of life - unbelievably believable, this move was EXACTLY like life is like, the accents perfect, the language appropriate, the whole story fantastic. I agree that if you do not live in London or at least have contact to the underground world you may not understand the movie very well, but rest assured this is a milestone in a whole genre of English ghetto movies - if you've seen the film 'Juice' starring Tupac Shakur you'll see a lot of connections in structure and plot but at the end of the day it's a unique, brilliant, enjoyable and in my opinion, perfect film.The actors are all skilled to the point where there acting is flawless - the 'bad guy' is not a generic evil psychotic skitzo, but rather just a down to earth nasty person. The hero, Ashley Waters, is lovable, conflicting and effortlessly cool as the friend, Wisdom, is both loyal but annoying at times (just like real friends can be!). The mother is loving and over protective (but not in a boring way, rather a sympathy evoking way which works excellently as she tries soooo hard to hide her pain) and the brother and his friend are both lovable and cool as well. A great film, on par with any Americano film, this is up there with Snatch, Lock Stock, Layer Cake and Trainspotting - it's different from all of them, but it is about crime and it is set in the slums of London, but rest assured it's original because I can't shake the feeling that stuff like this happens every day - even if it is a fascinating tale of revenge, deceit, horror and love. Ten stars! Go see now!

I went to the Premiere of Bullet Boy at the Corner House last night and was very impressed with the film. The film has a very powerful, positive message, and i think it is a very thought provoking film which deserves to be seen by as many people as possible. The film deals with the issue of gun crime is a very realistic, non stereotypical way, and gives a very good insight into a world which many of us have probably never come across. The film ends with what i thought was a positive message of hope and inspiration. This film is definitely worth a look!!! I would also like to add that the director and lead actor- Ashley Walters both came across as really nice people, who obviously have a great passion for films and the issues within this one. Is was very refreshing to see 2 fairly young people with such an intelligent, positive, polite manner. I was very impressed!
