Evalauation of Real thriller Opening

The Film I will be reviewing is "four Brothers". This is a film set in Detroit, in the poorer parts. It starts with a car driving to a store, the scene is very dark, which shows the mood and part of the genre of the film. It also shows snow blowing accross a car windscreen (close-up of Windscreen) and of two die hanging from the car rear view mirror. To Me this seems like a continuity edit, showing the film sticks to basic camera editing techniques. During a conversation it also uses only three or four camera angles. When we see two armed robbers come into a store, we cannot see their masked faces, and the wind is howling, here costumes and sound tell us that something bad may happen in this film. we see the light produced by two gunshots from outside the store, then the robbers running, which also makes it seem spooky. It uses little lighting in the store, and the costumes are dark. the Camera work and sound during the gunshots make it seem more horrible, like the flashes of light from outside and the amplified noise of the guns.
