Research: Audience Research Statistics

FIGHT CLUB

By looking at this chart I have come to the conclusion males between the ages 18-29 have the highest audience that watch the thriller film Fight Club. Typical interests of men between this age range include exercising, clothing, women, their career etc.

18 year old male - 29 year old male

LIMITLESS

Again from this chart I have concluded that 18-29 year old males are the main audience for Limitless the film.

SHUTTER ISLAND

Yet again I have concluded that the highest audience rating Shutter Island is males between the ages of 18-29.

CONCLUSION OF RESEARCH

After looking into 3 thriller films on imdb and looking at the user rating charts I have concluded that the main audience that directors and production companies target when creating a thriller film is males between the ages of 18-29. This makes sense as most of the time this is the age range of the main male role in thrillers, as well as the attractive female co-star so this may also be an attraction for males to thrillers. Men between these ages tend to be quite physically fit and career forward, so these males most likely see themselves as quite strong which is what the male leads in thrillers tend to see themselves like so this may be a reason why men of this age range are the main target audience for thrillers.

Spoiler Review of Stolen

Thriller Review: Stolen (2012)

In the film Stolen Nicolas Cage plays a notorious bank robber named Will Montgomery who with his partners stole $10m. However, he has an argument with Vincent (one of his partners) who then in the runaway leaves Will behind. He tries to get away but FBI agent Tim Harlend organises a search for Will and in the end is consequently caught but before he burns the $10m of stolen Monday to rid the evidence against him. Now eight years later Will leaves prison and goes to try and amend his relationship with his daughter Alison. Alison leaves Will alone in a coffee shop and jumps in a cab to go to a session with her shrink. Although a few minutes later Will receives a phone call from Vincent who he is thought to be dead up until this point, Vincent tells him that he has abducted Alison and will kill her unless he receives the $10m from the robbery. Will now has 12 hours to rescue his daughter from Vincent.

Stolen has all the elements in place to create a good thriller: a good girl partner (Riley), a loose-cannon partner (Vincent) and a nemesis cop (Tim). The story line given to this thriller keeps it interesting because the main characters are forever changing depending on where in Will's rescue he finds himself, this creates an emotional change constantly throughout the film which shows the film has depth. The fact the film is staged on following Nicolas Cage on his venture gives the film emotional complexity. Overall I enjoyed this thriller as it is a high-quality action packed thriller that constantly keeps you on your toes as to whats about to happen next.

I would give this thriller a 3/5 rating.
