Here is my Textual Analysis and some Primary & Secondary Research
What is the product: Non Stop The Movie
Background Info: It was made in 2014 and is Starring Liam Neeson
Why have you picked it?: I saw it a few months ago, thought it was pretty good, it has a good plot and i know a lot about because i’ve seen it recently.
Textual Analysis: ¾ minutes long
I will be looking at the trailer of the film
After watching the trailer, I have noticed that there is no stereotypes in the film, the reason being is because they don’t want to give the villain away, the villain is only found at the end. Through out the whole film he/she is anonymous. The Demographic of the film is mainly aimed at adult and young teens. The genre of the film is Action, as you watch the trailer you understand more about the Mise-en-scene. the main story is about a person trying to kill someone every 20 minutes until 150 million dollars are sent to an bank account. The narrative of the story is good and clever. The film age rating is a 15 meaning it isn’t for young people, showing that is it aimed at Adults. It was very popular because Liam Neeson starred in it, people saw he was going to be in it so they went and watched it, there was no real promotion in the film to make it popular, It was mainly the fact that famous actors and actresses were in it. The film couldn’t be shown in some countries around the world, but only a few, it was sold worldwide apart from a few small and dangerous countries.
My overall i think this film is great, after reviewing it i think its really good if you like action films (which i do), also it keeps you wanting more, noting knowing who the villain is.
Research Plan & Methodology
I will probably make a survey which can be done online and handed out around the college and my local area. The reason i am doing this is because i think it would be easier to do.
Primary Research:
After creating a survey online https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/7XM36WW i have found out that not many people have seen the film, the people who have seen it would love to see a sequel but the people who haven’t couldn’t care if there was a sequel or not. and the villain of the film was hidden well and wasn’t obvious. Amazing everyone had mixed feeling about its genre. Everyone thought it was ok, not the best but ok, i chose it because it is one of the most reason films i have seen and the only one i could think of, I thought it was ok as well.
After going online and looking at reviews of the film, i discovered that it has been mainly rated between at 6 and a 7. Imdb rated it 7 overall meaning it is a ok film, not the best but ok. After researching i found out the film is genre is Action just like i thought. its also listed up Thriller and Mystery (because of the unknown villain) The characters in the film are all anonymous, one of them is a muslim and a lot of people in the plane assume its him because of what happened with 911 but in the end it turns out to not be him.
These are a few notes I made to help me in my presentation
Audience: BBFC gave it a 12
Its a mystery because you don’t know the villain, turns out to be two people,
Survey Research: Even if they hadn’t seen it but had heard about it
Local Area: Neighbours, all ages watched it again,
Online: I went on Wiki, Imdb
Overall: So overall lots of people had mixed feelings about it, I personally thought the film was ok, everyone else had mixed feelings.
Here are screen shots of each slide I used in my presentation
