- The production company's are called Film4 and Warp Films.
- Shane Meadows directed the film.
- The budget of the film was $2,380,000.
- The film grossed $8,176,544.
- The film won awards from BAFTA, British Independent Film, London Film Festival and many more international awards.
- The poster is shot outside, which means no expensive studio was used, the lighting isn't used for effect anywhere as many medium/high budget films use, mostly unknown actors are shown, the environment looks to be a poor area and in the background you can see council estate buildings. The website looks cheaply created as an unrecognizable building is in the background and the trailer is at the forefront, the rest of the website doesn't look professional compared to other film websites, which fits with the films tone.
- The poster and website doesn't seem to fall into the gang-crime genre as the colours are quite bright and there are no gangs, weapons or any common conventions of the genre, however it does fit with setting of the film which is shown to be a poor, lower/working class area because they are standing by a rusty fence with council estate buildings in the background; they are dressed in clothes from a few decades ago which means this is a time-period film, and the clothes look worn out and cheap.
- The target audience would be mostly British people as they will be able to connect with the characters better than a foreign audience who haven't lived in a similar environment, however this may also be a reason why they would want to watch the film, to see what the lower class areas of England were like back in the 80s. Others who grew up in the 80s would want to see how true the film is to the them, or their children who want to know what their origins are.

This is England
Bridesmaids
- The production company's are Relative Media and Apatow Productions.
- Paul Feig directed the film.
- The budget for the film was $32.5 million.
- The film grossed $288,383,523.
- The film won an AFI award, BSFC Award, Critics Choice Award, IFTA award, Sierra Award and a People's Choice Award.
- The film poster is quite basic, which shows it has a medium budget as the background is just a brick wall, and well-known but not famous actress' are used to portray the characters.
- In the poster the characters look quite rough but very serious faces which contrasts with the rest of the poster as the colors are quite bright; they are wearing pink dresses whilst the bride is wearing a bright white dress which means the film will be quite light-hearted or funny.
- The target audience is female as all the characters are women who are trying to look "cool" and the title is Bridemaids. This is a job many women will go through or have already been through so they will want to watch so they know what it's going to be like or recall their time as a Bridesmaid.
Fast & the Furious 5
- The production company's that made this film are called Original Film and One Race Film.

- The poster shows all the characters, who are played by famous actors who generally cost a lot of money.
- The actors are commonly used in action films, they look like they have been through a fight, all of them look very serious and some of them are carrying weapons.
- The general audience is men, probably teenagers and above because the franchise is known to be about cars and violence, women are shown very seductively, almost as an object because it appeals to the male audience.
