Analysing Opening (Fury)
Fury (Genre:War, Action, Drama)



In the movie 'Fury' the main genres are War, horror and action, I can 'Fury' is a war film by how the person riding the horse looks around for any survivors around the dead bodies laying on the ground and I can also see the destroyed tanks. The film 'fury' shows its genre of war with death which is shown when the american stabs the nazi on the horse and tanks which is most of the time related to war.
The film 'Fury' also shows action when later into the film there is tank battles which becomes very intense as you try to see who survives against the Germans.

Comparison 'Fury' to 'Saving Private Ryan' Genre war





Saving Private Ryan is very different from the film Fury, Furys two minute scene was calm and with slowly building up to intense when the German riding the house gets killed, But in Saving Private Ryan it starts similar but quickly becomes more intense with the soldiers in the boat getting sick and tightly next to each other which makes this scene intense

Info about me
My favorite film

My favourite film is 'I am Legend' and it is also directed by 'Francis Lawrence' and was made in 2007 the genres are post-apocalyptic and horror, The film is also based in new York. I enjoyed this film because it was the first film I watched that had zombies in it and it also made me cry as I found it really sad, The scene that made me cry was when the dog got bitten and the owner 'Robert Neville' has to kill the dog so he doesn't turn into a zombie. I also like the story line as I felt like I was part of the film and can have feelings for the characters sadness and depression of being the only human alive, I also like the concept of how he is the only human alive and hes living with his pet dog 'Sam' and they have to fight off the virus that has spreaded around the world. Robert Neville acted by Will smith Robert is a scientist who was developing a cure for cancer but that cure for cancer turned into a virus that has affected the world and turned everyone to zombies, Later into the film Robert Neville finds that the zombies have intelligence and feelings for there past life of being humans with their own familys
