The two main characters from london to Brighton and Bullet Boy, both live under harsh and violent conditions of the the underworld society. For instance from the reviews of the BBC, it has stated Joanne, who is a eleven year old runaway, was spotted begging outside Waterloo station, which demonstrates the similarities with the main character from Bullet Boy, for example from the Indie london review, it has stated that Rickey, who is a emerging from offenders institute, finds himself drawn back into guns and drugs. From both of the film it reflects on how the impact on poverty could lead to issues of crimes, for example from the BBC reviews states that Kelly, who is a twenty- five year old prostitute, is developing maternal instinct, as she has sex with strangers to earn money, for them both (Kelly). However on the other hand, the main character, Ricky is involved with gun and drug crimes due to his loyalty towards is friend, known as Wisdom. Which demonstrates the main reasons for Ricky to go back to gun crimes and drug crimes was not due to poverty but for friendship and loyalty, at the same time this could be related to the main character from london to Brighton, Kelly because she has sold herself to earn money for a living and for Joanne.
