Source Code

Source code is a thriller about a man who wakes up on a train in an unknown body on a train. The train blows up and he wakes up in a banker where he is informed that his mission is to find out the bomber of the Chicago train.                                                  
            




The trailer to source code is is very intriguing , they manage to convey the general story yet keep the audience wondering and confused. It has very emotional and romantic scenes with would appeal to a female audience. It also has a lot of action scenes which would attract a male audience.It is smartly constructed with the fast paced and dramatic music.


















Source code contains some general conventions of a thriller for example at the end the use of a red herring because the audience expects that at the end after he saved the universe it will cease to exist.However it turns out that it was an alternate universe and because he saved the train , in the real world his mission never existed.

It is also full of a lot of plot twists  for example when we find out that he is not actually alive. Or when we think Goodwin will not give him a last chance and she ends up doing so.
