Bourne Ultimatum

I was unable to access the movie, so I choose to put up the trailer however, I analysed the first two minutes of the movie.

There are no opening titles, it just says the Bourne Ultimatum. It opens up and it sets the scene for us by having an establishing shot where it tells us the country which we are in. We can hear diegetic sounds which include trains and police cars. Immediately following this establishing shot we are introduced to the character. He is the icon in this movie, as this is a trilogy we are able to understand his character already and have understandings about his characteristics. There are many point of view shots where we see what he sees and the camera is following him. Doug Liman choose to do this on purpose because we are able stay along side the main characters. From the opening the audience has many questions, which is the theory of Charles Derry. Doug Liman has purposely created these enigma codes so that the audience have to stay to watch the rest of the movie and to stay on the edge of the seat.
