Target Audience: Certification of Crime Films

To ensure that the target audience is correct, I will look at the certifications of  popular crime films.


Here are some examples of the genre-

The Dark Knight

Oceans Eleven

S.W.A.T.

Sherlock Holmes

Catch Me You Can

Shawshank Redemption            

Rocknrolla

Taking of Pelham 1 2 3

Bad Boys II

Layer Cake 

Point Break

Hot Fuzz 

Silence of the Lambs

Se7en

Snatch

Harry Brown

Pulp Fiction

Bad Boys

Hannibal

Natural Born Killers

From this is can see that the most common certificates for a crime genre is the 15 and 18 certificates and these both would make the film for the film which I am going to make the first two minutes for, to be these one certificates.
