Simillar film taret audience data

Data from the Godfather shows a more mature audience towards the mid life age range. The film is primarily watched by a male audience however the audience is not mostly male and there is still an established female audience showing films of the crime genre will still appeal to a female audience.

Pulpfiction



Pulpfiction primary audience is a younger audience than The Godfather, possibly because it has a less mature nature so because of this would appeal to a younger audience the gender is also primarily male which is a common trend for films in the crime thriller genre. You will also notice a recurring interest in David Attenborough which further implies a maturity to the crime thriller audience in contrast with another genre such as action films, this is most likely because crime films often have a complex logic and storyline to follow and will often be very psychological at times.

The Road to Perdition

 



Much like The Godfather  I noticed an older age audience once again primarily male, The Road to Perdition is a very mature film with a much deeper meaning designed to resignate with you after the film, it is a slower moving film which means it may not be as appealing towards younger people. The mood to this film is something I will try replicate in my film opening so I think I will try base my target audience around the older age group and use a primarily male target audience.

Goodfellas



Goodfellas being a more abrupt and action based crime thriller film seems to have a younger audience than Godfather and Road to Perdition due to the lack of complexity of the main plot. Once again the primary audience is male and the audience is similar to that of  pulp fiction.

Public Enemies



The main audience of Public Enemies is mostly male which is promenant in most crime films. The main audience of Public Enemies however is a middle age centred meaning the main audience is varied between young and old people creating a balanced age audience. This shows this film has elements which both appeal to both young and old viewers.

Transporter



The Transporter is a more action based crime film with a lot of high speed action and fight scenes so the audience is slightly younger because of this however you can see that the audience is once again more middle age showing the film appeals to both younger and older people and has quite a wide ranging audience. Once again the audience is primarily male which links to all the other crime films I have looked at.
