Genre Research What Happened To Monday

The first movie I’ve decided to analyze is called What Happened to Monday. This move is a netflix originality that gained lots of views in 2019. It does contain action and romance elements so it’s actually said to be more than one genre. The movie is filled with constant lighting changes throughout. The whole movie has lots of dark, medium, and bright lights. It also contains a lot of flashing as well. These different lighting levels truly evoked intensity while I watched the movie. It also created lots of variety as well as dimension. This film contained angles of all kinds. It included close ups and extreme close ups when the characters were getting ready for their day. It includes mid shot and even more close ups during violent scenes. There were also some tracking shots like when the camera moved with the characters heels. It also included two+ person shots because this was a movie in which there were lots of interactions within the family, so everyone had to have been captured in the shot. Towards the end, the movie also had a lot of over the shoulder shots when the last two sisters confronted each other. The editing included lots of jump cuts throughout the whole movie as well. This kept you hooked on the precious scene while you watched the next. The props and costumes in this movie were seriously impressive. Every single sister had her own costume that fit her personality. The makeup also emphasized this idea. I think this affect kept us interested to learn more about every single sister. We continued to watch so we could find out more. The props also played the same role. The sounds were diegetic. They included noises like walking, talking, eating, etc. The nondiegetic sounds included unnatural door sliding sounds and more. There were many different settings through this film. I believe all of them played key roles in developing the story. They were all significant later on in some way. I thoroughly enjoyed many elements of this film. I truly don't think I disliked anything about it.
