Ben Drew the director of the film is also known as the
rapper/artist Plan B. Ben Drew is an urban artist so his film reflects to his
life and what he's seen during his life.
Ben Drew has previously been involved in films similar to
his i.e. Adulthood which is also a British Urban drama. Ben Drew acted in
Adulthood which was a pretty big hit and was very successful so this may have
inspired him to make his movie 'ILL MANORS'.
The movie is an urban drama and it definitely it’s a roller-coaster
just like a soap but just put in a film.
The actors in the movie aren't known and are normal people
this made the movie better because you can see that this is real life for them.
Also, this is an advantage for Ben Drew because he didn't have to pay much to
them unlike if he had real professional actors.
The movie is a classic urban drama that involves explicit
content like sex, drugs and violence. The movie is about how drug dealers get
by on a day to day basis and all the drama that is attached to the life they
have chosen.
The main target audience for this movie I think would have
to be people aged 15-35 and that are aware of the street life meaning they know
all the colloquial language used and they understand the lifestyle that these
characters are portraying. Also this may be aimed at people that are similar to
the characters so they may be able to relate to their lifestyle so may enjoy
watching the movie.
The soundtracks in the movie were usually narrating the
story and what was happening at that moment which was very intelligent because
it was different and really engaged the audience. Also, this promoted Ben
Drew's music in his movie and many may have liked or enjoyed the soundtracks
that were played.
