Shot 1 - The first shot is an establishing shot looking over at the sky and the top of the town in which the film is set. The town looks fairly regular where it seems that nothing particularly interesting happens. The towns apperaence is matched by the grey sky and gives an overal impression of bleakness. The shot then pans down to focus on the town. This suggests that were the focus of the town is where the action is going to take place. (Establishing shot)
Shot 2 - The second shot is of one of the characters (Sam) getting ready in the mirror. The fact that he is looking in the mirror suggests to the audience that he is possibly vain and cares about his appearance. The audience gets this impression before they have even got to know the character properly. The Shot is at a low angle which suggests that the character is strong and dominant. (Mid-Shot)
Shot 3 - The third shot is a close-up on some keys. The keys are then picked up by a hand of one of the main characters. The shot is short and quick cut which suggests that the character is in a hurry and adds to the fasted pace nature of our opening. (Close-up)
Shot 4 - The fourth shot is of one of the characters leaving his house and getting in his car. The shot starts by looking at the house and then pans to follow the character as he walks to his car. (Long-shot)
