Unknown



this poster gives us a incite into the film for example the phrase "take back your life" indicating A man awakens from a coma, only to discover that someone has taken on his identity and that no one, (not even his wife), believes him. With the help of a young woman, he sets out to prove who he is.
the mcguffin of the film is prince shalla- world food however we are not interested about this were more interested about the idea of his identity being taken and him proving he is who he says he is.


the trailer is set out going from start to middle to the end then back to the begin this is to keep you interested as well as not giving to the much of the film away at the same time.

the main key scene within this film is the hospital scene this is due to the amount of fast editing which has taken place which includes someone getting murdered and he has to try escape within a matter of seconds by grabbing the scissors to cut himself loose. therefore the music used to create tension of a very high standards creating disorientating sounds.

furthermore in this Liam Neeson is the the subordinate as he is a passenger he does not hold the cards therefore his binary opposite is the guy who is the imposter of him.

even more so the women are presented as the male gaze therefore to seek the sexual pleasures of the male eyes and expose the women to be portrayed as there prey.

one of the most excruciating scenes throughout the whole film is the end scene in the hotel where we think he is about to die however he hits his head regaining back his memory of everything therefore a trained assassin defining this as where he becomes the reluctant hero who realises what he used to do was wrong and corrupt bringing down his own enterprise of work place which was run by him as

  1. If possible analyse a couple of key scenes in even more detail. Camera, editing, sound and mise en scene. How exactly did the Director achieve specific effects?
    We need analsysis rather than description.
