Annotating 2 mins of an opening scene of a movie (Expendables)

The film I will be analyzing is The first of two expendables movies. The genre of this movie is action/ thriller. I believe the genre's are introduced straight away with the non diegetic sound which complemented the gloomy opening to the movie where you couldn't really see anything as everything was distorted. I believe that these affects would have got the audience o the edge of their seats really expressing the thriller side of the movie. Unfortunately there wasn't much in the opening two minutes to show the action genre but towards the end, we experience a lot fast paced shots suggesting that there is a lot of controversy happening and a action scene is about to begin. Another bit in the opening two minutes that support this is when the motor cycle turns up and the camera does an extreme close up of the expendables sign which just gave an indication that something is about to happen.
     We don't really identify and specific characters so I can't really state how the characters are represented but it does show the expendables as a group and so suggests that all the members of the group are the main characters. The group seem quite mysterious and again builds the suspense which shows that it is a thriller movie.
     Another aspect I find interesting in this movie is the lighting and is shot in the night. This again helps build the scene with the non diegetic sound and the foggy opening. This is because dark denotes dangour. Most burglaries in movies tend to occur in the night. So this tells me that some action is about to happen.
    The props used such as the motorbikes suggest that that the characters are old. I say this because the expendables turned up in a rather historical motorcycle which supports this.
   What I can take from this opening when thinking about mine is how the pace suddenly changes in the movie. This has helped me see how fast paced shots show action waiting to happen in practice and makes me realize that the pace of the movie is vital for the audience to understand the actual context.
