Within the opening scene we are able to establish what genre this film is, this would come under the gangster genre. We can tell this through many different conventions, the fighting scene and uncalled for punching, their clothing, the location etc. The location at the start of this film is walking through dark streets and then they have a fight outside the pub. The location and clothing makes the audience believe it is a gangster styled film and the lighting is quite dark which is another convention of a gangster genre. In the first two minutes you can tell who the leaders of the group are and who will be the main characters because of how much the camera cuts back to them and that they are positioned at the front of the group. Even though he isn't one of the leaders, we think the guy who put the bomb under the door will be a main character because of how much the camera cuts back to him. After a passer by has shouted at them labeling them as 'animals' narration is played over the top, of a boy who's thinking, it's as if what is being said is what he's thinking. Sex references are used and he swears throughout this narration, this is a something that is associated with the gangster genre because they think they are rebellious.
