second film opening review

Hot Shots : Part Deux

I have reviewed the first few minutes of this film because it is an action comedy, the same genre of film my group is planning to make, I also watched the whole of the film to get ideas and inspiration for our film opening.

although I will go further into the order of the introduction credits on my next review, I noticed the distributor is always shown before the start of the film, and at the start of the introduction credits the first two names are the director - Jim Ambram, and the lead actor- Charlie sheen, and almost immediately after the lead actors name has disappeared, the film title appears in bold red letters to attract the viewers attention. the probable reason for the early showing of the lead actor is to entice fans of Charlie Sheen and show others in support of the funny side of the film.
after this there is a overhead shot of a sub marine surfacing this provides a relatively simple background to the introduction text which immediately provides comedy in the spelling mistakes and corrections.

the establishing shot comes in about 1:37 in the film and shows a palace surrounded by rocks and cliffs and lit up by multicoloured lights however with a desert like surrounding.
