Which thrillers are considered your personal favourite and why?

Skyfall –

Skyfall immediately became one of my favourite thriller films of all time from the very beginning of the film. The opening credits immediately draw you into the film as it looks as if James Bond the main character is already dead. We soon discover that he is not in fact dead. There are many twists and plots within the film. As well as Daniel Craig one of my favourite actors from within the film is Javier Bardem, he plays the character Raoul Silva the man behind all of the acts on MI6. He brings a lot of twists within the films; he always has the audience guessing. My favourite scene from within the films Skyfall is the scene where Bond has to chase Silva down in the London Underground. This is a good scene from within a thriller film as there is so much suspension as you are unsure as to whether Bond is going to catch Silva.

The Escape Plan –

Another one of my favourite thriller films of all time is The Escape Plan. Sylvester Stallone plays the main character Ray Breslin, Ray designs prisons within America then gets locked within them. His task is to make sure that the prisons that have been designed are fully escape proof. This is not until a new modern prison is designed, built by a group of ex military men the prison cannot be found by anyone. This film is incredibly thrilling, as soon as Stallone is put within the new prison it is clear that he is going to have a lot of trouble escaping. This draws the audience in as they fell like they are part of the film as we see every little step on how he escapes. He builds a close relationship with another inmate in this new prison, Arnold Schwarzenegger. They work together to eventually break out when at the end of the film we discover that the daughter of Arnold Schwarzenegger was the one who put Stallone in the new prison.
