Dredd Opening Two Minutes Analysis


The opening two minutes of the film Dredd starts with Dredd as the main character perusing a camper van full of drug dealers on a police motorbike and then they start shooting at him and then they knock over a pedestrian so Dredd shoots out their tires and the truck rolls over killing two of the occupants in the front seats and a third occupant runs out into a big block of flats and kills a bunch of civilians and takes one as a hostage and then Dredd arrives and they have a stand off until he shoots the dealer in the head with a thermite round.

The clothes that Dredd wears shows that he’s law enforcement and that he’s tough and represents an organisation because of the uniform. The drug dealers where cheap tatty clothing which has been well worn in which shows they live a rough life style and don’t have a lot of money or choice in the way they live.

Dredd is presented as very tough in the way that he deals criminals and enforces the law.


To capture this shot they use close shots to show Dredds expressions and dialogue and medium shots to capture the drug dealers dialogue and long shot's to show vehicle movement.
