The Dark Knight The Dark Knight uses a bank heist to portray to the audience that the film is going to be action packed and also filled with plot twists, as within the first scene a gun fight breaks out between a bank manager and the heisters. The plot twists are evident when, after each section of the heist has been fulfilled that person becomes useless, so the others kill him. Also, the Joker, whom the whole group had been talking about and stating their dislike of him, reveals himself at the end of the scene and shows that he is the mastermind behind the plan and that he will be taking all of the money, his job is to ‘Kill the Bus driver’. The Music used during this scene is continuous and very intense, as this perfectly fits the High intensity feel of the whole scene. The Italian Job The opening scene of “The Italian Job” is arguably the most recognisable scene in cinematic history, it features a red Lamborghini touring through the Italian alps to the tune of Matt Monro singing “on days like these” which only adds to the brilliance of the scene. The Lamborghini then drives into a tunnel, where we hear the engine sounds and then the sound of a crash and we see a fireball. The scene then cuts to the other side of the tunnel, where we see a Bulldozer reversing out of the tunnel with an unfortunate crumpled red Lamborghini on its plow, which is then pushed down the mountain – this is foreshadowing what will happen to one of Michael Cain’s Jaguar E-Types later on in the film. We also see the a Mafia congregation, which will later stop the British Heist crew (more foreshadowing). Avengers: Age of Ultron
The opening scene of “Avengers: Age of Ultron” is fittingly filled with action, as the film is filled with high intensity. The scene is vital as it introduces the audience to the avengers, even if you are a completely new to the Marvel universe the scene demonstrates to the audience all of the “powers” – Thor has his multi purpose hammer, Black Widow is shown performing special agent take downs, Captain America illustrates his super strength by throwing his motorbike at a car, Hulk catches a Tank and throws it, Hawkeye is seen arching enemies and Iron Man is flying around destroying enemies. These scenes fit the genre perfectly, as it is an illustration of action. |
