Target Audience

Our target audience for our thriller is both male and females aged between 12 and 25. This is because these are the most likely people to watch thriller films. Also this age category are very interested in thrillers as there are many different types of thrillers, for example: crime (which is our thriller), psychological (Donnie Darko) and Action (James Bond).



The 12A rating is only used for films shown in cinemas. It is given to films that are best suited to those aged 12 or older. However, people younger than 12 may see a 12A so long as they are accompanied by an adult! In such circumstances, responsibility for allowing a child under 12 to view lies with the accompanying adult.
We have chosen to have our certificate as a 12A as it is a mild thriller meaning there will be no or very little violence, explicit language and sex scenes.
