Case study 3: Transporter 3
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pbh3CDBNIQA

The film “The Transporter” is an action film based on a guy who is very skilled in fighting and driving. The fact that he is professional at these skills he gains attention of others and they pay him to do many things including violence and crime.
The scene I will be concentrating in this film is the car scene. In this scene the camera shots are very effective and useful. The shots that are used are shot reverse shot and
 medium shot. This allows the audience to understand the dialogue between the two characters in the car. Also it creates suspense as the camera switches from one face to another rapidly.


The themes in this film are again about power and glory.
In this film it is not easy to relate to but oppositely imagine because the characters are very hero like. Again we see the power of the main character by him being unstoppable and fighting and chasing everyone. He winning the fights against other character allows the audience to see his power. We also see that this character gets dressed in suits and owns a high priced car just like Ezel showing us the power and status. The fact that when a fight scene occurs the camera shots are very fast. When the main character fights and defeats the other characters the shots change into a wide shot so the audience can see that the bad characters are on the floor (low status) and the main character is strong and non-touchable.
