The film opening to the hangover starts off with showing us the wedding venue and the bride worrying about where her husband to be is. The opening the goes onto a Close-up of a man on the phone, the man says the Bachelor party got out of the control and they 'F***ed up' and lost the man who is due to be getting married. He then says the wedding will probably not happen. The titles then start and it makes you want to carry on watching in suspence to know what happened that may make the wedding not happen, and where the lost man actually is.
Step-brothers
The opening sequence of 'Step-brothers' shows a women and her son at home, and then a man and his son at home. It then cuts to the man and women meeting in what seems to be a work conference. I think this is shown to show the two families coming together which makes the viewer want to keep watching to find out what will happen.Observe and Report
The opening scene of Observe and Report begins with an Long shot of the area that the film is based, or the scene where it is being filmed.There are many close ups used through the opening scene these are used to show the important characters and people that are in the surrounding scene. The clothing used throughout the opening scene is smart and casual Shop owners/employees (Smart) shoppers (Causal). Bright lighting is used throughout to show all characters clearly and easily, when the security guard is shown this would be convention as this would be typical in any shopping malls or shopping centre's to have security which means that there may be action throughout the film.
The Other Guys
The opening scene of the Other Guys begins with an establishing wide shot, to show the where scene is being shot; for example it may be in New York as you can see 'sky scrappers'. The opening scene is full of explosive action with close up on a character ( law enforcer) which shows that this film has to be an action film; guns, police, and violence. Further on through the opening scene the explosive action is very dramatic and creates a very welcoming invite to watch on as this will catch your attention. Both sets of actors in the opening scene have specific dress codes for example the police where black and professional colours where as the gang are wearing casual clothing; there hair would show that they are Jamaican as they have ' Dread locks'. The body language of the police would suggest that they are happy with what they are doing as they are smiling and showing negative expressions, the song choice would link into the gang related crime as it is a 'rap' song.
Mean Girls
The opening scene of mean girls shows a girl who used to be home schooled moving to a high school. It starts off with her parents talking to her, looking down at her. They show this in a two person shot. It then does an over the shoulder shot of her standing up. The camera movement throughout the opening scene is mostly panning.
