We find out this is an action film, this is because it starts of with the bad guys smashing a window then they zip line across two buildings 100's of feet above the ground, this shows that there is danger which would keep the audience on the edge of their seats. Also there is a bank robbery which is a convention of an action film, in most action films there is the 'bad guys' committing a crime. The opening scene shows that there is people being put at gun point which is also a convention of an action film, this would link with the zip line across the buildings as they both keep the audience on the edge of their seats.
The opening scene is very high tempo. Another thing that would suggest the dark knight is an action film is that it is set in a big city; also the setting is very modern. The opening scene suggests that there is a motive for the 'bad guys'. Their motive is to get as much money as possible; this is a convention of an action film. The opening shot is of the city which would suggest that there is where the movie will be set. There is a lot of close ups of the so called 'villains' which would suggest there will be some sort of clash between the villains and the heroes. There are also a lot of gun shots and people being shot dead, this would suggest that this is an action film. The target audience of this film would be males; this is due to the hi-tech gadgets, gunshots and all of the action of this film mostly being aimed towards males.
The non diagetic sound is very mysterious and fast paced, this creates tension. It makes the audience feel as if something bad is going to happen. The villains speak about 'The Joker' throughout this clip, this would suggest that he is one of the main characters in this film. Even though he is not in this clip you can almost tell that he is a dangerous character.
