Chosen Which Idea Change

I have chosen to change my idea to idea 2.
This is because I fell that the my second idea would work better at keeping the audience entertained for the first 2 mins without the audience getting bored. I plan to give the audience the idea that the person who has been captured seems absolutely helpless, this will then have a bigger reaction when the captive breaks out and kills his captivator.

By starting with having a man who is in a helpless situation it will grip the auience because they will think 'how did this man get like that?' 'what did he do to make people want to do that to him?' and more.

When people watch an action film they want to be gripped by the neck and dragged into the action as soon as possible. I will be trying to do this by having someone be killed in the first 2 mins.

Hit-man films tend to have a sence of mystery to them, I plan on including this by not showing one of the the characters faces, this will give the audience the sence that he is going to be a key character for this Hit-man and by not showing his face the audience will be trying to figure out who the man is who hired him.

Another factor about action films that focus on the sub-genre hit-men is that a lot of the films names link to the name of the hit-man that the film focuses around.
