taking lives

In the opening sequence of this film there is little to indicate that this movie is a thriller. however the film start with two boys. their names are unknown which adds to the suspense and the mystery. we feel that the opening sequence challenges the true and common conventions of a crime thriller. this is because the lighting in the film is bright and happy and the two boys show friendship growing. however in the last part of the opening sequence the two boys are driving down a road. they hear a loud bang and investigate, too their surprise they find that the tire on there car has burst, there is no indication of what happened and how. this adds to the suspence and the mystery of the film.
