Film poster analysis


BLADE RUNNER

The poster looks pretty futuristic and the guy on the poster is holding a gun 
 so i think it is likely this movie belongs to a sci-fi/action genre.
On the top right corner of the poster it says 'man has made his match...now it's his problem'.
From that i can infer that the storyline has something to do with robots that humans have lost control of and the main character ( The guy on the poster ) has to stop the robots in some way.
I think the target audience is somewhere between 16-30 years of age and 65% male 35% female.



Scary Movie 2

From the poster we can tell that this is a horror movie also on the poster there is a few hilarious expressions that can suggest it is also a comedy. Also what is written on the shirts of the female characters on the poster can further reinforce the idea it is a horror movie. The target audience may be young adults, ranging from ages 16-30, because some scenes may be scary, but I think since it is also comedy it can't can that scary.

Uzak

The location that the poster shows looks very old and lonely. It is not somewhere you would be if you wanted to have fun. The character on the poster looks like he is on the run or homeless and is looking down into the lake. He seems to have lost hope. I think the storyline will be something about how the man became homeless/ hopeless.  I think the genre belongs to drama, because this seems like a pretty sad story. The target audience I think are 15-35 of age and 60% female 40% male as this story is dose not seem very harmful fro children to see 
but it may be difficult for someone under the age of 15 to understand.  


I' m not scared 

 I think it is about a kid that finds a hole (as shown on the central image of the poster) and hears or sees something that scares him, and because he doesn't know what he saw he wants to find out as would any curious kid. He has to overcomes his fears like the title says "I'm Not Scared" to go see whats inside. The genres may be mystery and drama , because if you look inside the font of the title you can see what appears to be pictures of people burning which could suggest whatever is down in the hole has suffered a lot so it fits into drama. I think this is a movie for ages of 15+ which I think is a fair estimate. 50% male 50% female

Sin City

 I think it includes a story line involving gang related violence, simply from the word 'City' where gangs are fighting for a living; to survive. It links to a contextual point when in the late 90's in places like suburban, ghetto areas where you either had to be affiliated with a gang, or die - there was no choice but to be cynical. In fact some cities were so violent that formerly known city Chicago is now known as 'Chiraq'. The genre I think belongs to the action and thriller category, because we can obviously relate something intense involving guns, and the same for action. The colour choice of just black also signifies a very dark mood, also not to mention the pitch red font which could again connote blood i.e. gang violence. Conclusively a film for ages of 18+.


Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's chest

the movie seems like it has an easy plot to figure out, because the whole story is pretty much in the cover. Typically expect a pirate that is looking for an ancient, hidden chest i.e "Dead" man's chest, and clashes with another pirate gang while obviously encountering problems like a giant sea monster as we see in the middle of the cover. The man in the middle and woman on the right possibly are also heading home, while stranded on an island, and kept hostage by village people like we see on the bottom left. The genre is a pick between Fantasy because of a giant sea monster octupus/squid, or Adventure. Age rating would probably be 13+ purely because I see nothing that is threatening, or giving a sinister impression from the cover. Plus it involves pirates which is always funny.


Bride and Prejudice



Personally, this is a movie about an couple who are about to get married hence why the movie itself is called Bride and Prejudice. I also think that they have moved from India to the United States. This is because on the bottom right of the poster, it shows a group of Indian people and the famous Taj Mahal and on the other side of the poster shows a city which looks to be New York or San Francisco since it shows a lot of trees in the background.
 This is a combination of romantic and comedy simply because it says so in the tagline right  at the top.
 This is a movie which I believe anyone would be willing to watch it.





Millon Dollar Baby


First of all, I think that the lady in the middle is the main protagonist of this movie. Also, I simply believe that this is a movie involving sports and following her parents footsteps. This is because she is dressed as if she is a kick boxer which is obviously a violent sport. Also, the title says "Million Dollar Baby", so this means that either one of her parents were a kick boxer or some sort of athlete and which is why she is known as the million dollar baby because of all the money her parents must've raised had been handed to her. Therefore, she is trying to continue one of her parents legacy. I believe that the person on the left is the main protagonists father and the one on the right (Morgan Freeman) is her trainer.
 I think that this is a sport films.
This looks like it's a violent movie, therefore I think that it is suitable for people aged between 15-40.
