summer task

Summer task:


The two clips I looked at were la noire and casino royale. Both clips had some common features like they both were set up like an action sort of shooter type of scene, where they both showed like there was going to be action and shooting/killing in them. They both looked like there was going to be lots of death and a shed load of blood. They both had a slow start to the opening scene but both looked like they were made in good conditions with plenty of money spent on them.

But la noire and casino royale looked different because la noire is a game and casino royale is a movie. La noire looked really western and old fashioned whereas casino royale looked more modern and more up to date. Casino royale looked more of an action whereas la noire looked gangsterish and didn’t show the sort of action and fast paced movements that action movies need.

Casino royale’s story line is shown as a fast paced and quick heart thumping action movie if it follows all of the bond films before, it shows it will be full of blood, killing and running after criminals and probably some explosions.

Whereas la noire looks like a slow paced gangster movie where it has a slow build up and will not be very good but will still have the death and bloodshed that a bond movie has.

The themes of casino royale are; bloodshed, killing, death, action, heart thumping and fast paced movements with a bit of romance thrown in as well. This means it will be like a typical bond film and typical fast paced action film, which means the audience will enjoy it if they like all of the bond films of before.


The themes of la noire are; gangster, a bit of romance, fighting, shooting, bloodshed and a thrill to kill. This means that it is a bit like a typical gangster film in where they don’t have the fast pacedness but to have the fun in killing people because it’s how a gangster film should be.

  1. A little generalised and relying on description. In future case studies:

    1) You need to always provide examples to support your points
    and not rely on description, wild guesses and opinion.

    2) Endeavour to use capital letters accurately.

  2. Whoops I've just found your labels!!! Sorry Ryan I missed them at the top.

    Ryan the visual examples of scary moments are mainly from horror films. The thriller genre is more sophisticated and relies on suspense and irony rather than in your face blood and guts. Nevertheless these screen shots reflect your enthusiasm.

    Of course in your own thriller when you come to plan it, the odd axe or pool of blood or dismembered finger may not go amiss!
