Minority Report 1/2/3 shot analysis

This is the first shot from Minority Report that we have to analyse, The shot used is a medium close up to allow other members/ people to be included in this shot.  This shot could mean that all these police members have confronted the villain and are about to capture him. We know that this is taking place in public because we can see the elevators in the back which suggests that there is a lot of people in a public area. It could also mean that these police officers are trying to prevent crime form happening and are trying to persuade the villain to give up crime. It also shows that the villain could be outnumbered by police officers and has no where to go. We can see that the officer in front is talking (he may be) to the villain whilst the others are getting ready to move in which could suggest the start of an action packed chase scene.

This is the second image that we had to analyse from Minority Report. It shows a element of action from the explosion of top of the car. The shot type used for this is a wide shot. One reason why this particular scene was filmed with a wide shot was to capture all of the action that is happening at this one given point. We can see two figures in this shot one is on the roof of the car whilst the other is standing near the wall in the back. It could be that the person by the wall is trying to run away from the person on the car roof. Or he could be a colleague of him and has just seen the villain flee the scene via the explosion. A lot of action is being shown here because we have the explosion which immediately draws the attention of the audience to that explosion. 

    This shot is the third and final shot that we had to analyse from Minority Report and here we see a close up of the 'villain'. This shot was used to show all the emotion and action that happens in this scene using his facial expression. He could be looking like he is ready to give up and surrender to the police/ turn himself in. We can almost see some innocence on his face/ he is asking for mercy or to be let go from the police. He might have also done something bad/ something he shouldn't have done and now he is regretting his decision. Again all of this is just my inference it may be or not be what the director wanted to get across.
