Children of men

The media text opens with Universals famous opening (Universal is the institutions) except instead of the epic music it was silent which could suggest something drastic has happened in the movie or the world. A news report then starts while names appear on the black screen, the news cast doesn't make perfect sense because they keep repeating that "the youngest person in the world has died." This is very unreal which suggest it could be supernatural or Sci Fi genre. The camera then moves to the large crowd of people all standing exactly the same in unison watching the news report in the cafe. The cafe is very dull and grey and every one's face is clearly upset about the recent death of the "youngest person." Except one man who struggles his way through the crowd to get his coffee and leave. He to seems upset but he is able to move on, the fact that he was the only one who is able to carry on could be a foreshadowing of what will happen later on.
The target audience is most likely to be for people who are 15 and over. The opening was very dark and sombre. Its too gloomy and mature for the younger audience. From  the 10 minute preview I could tell the movie is probably a drama, Sci Fi and action adventure. This is because the dramatic opening of people grieving together shows the drama aspect. There was also a bomb which exploded on a normal street and people not injured continued as if nothing happened while the screaming went on. The news report also showing the catosrophe and wars everywhere around the world shows the action.
The social group are represented as one together all suffering. The movies starts out in London and the camera shot which zoomed in on to the playing TV shows the rest of the world is being affected just as much. Also the panning of the sceneary, as the the main character take the train shows the complete destruction and corruption London has turned into. The movie shows everyone is being affected not one group, like the rich, are not being affected, this could have been done to make the movie more dramatic.
