The Equalizer Official Trailer 

Genre: Even though this movie hasn't been released yet, we are able to conclude that this is an action and crime based movie. This is because the trailer contains aggressive behaviour which gives us an "image" of what to expect. 

Audience: I would say that this movie is targeted towards males aged 17 and over. The movie is rated 'R' which informs us that it will contain explicit content such as foul language, fighting (aggressive behaviour) and sexual content.This suggests that males would enjoy watching this movie compared to females, as they are more aggressive whilst women are more sensitive. 80% male & 20% female

  Platform:  Although this is a trailer, you will be able to watch the extended version in the cinema's, however for those below 16 a parent/guardian must be present  for you to be allowed to watch it. After the movie gets released you will notice that people will be able to watch it on online websites, such as putlocker.is, youtube and many more! People tend to do this out of laziness as they cant be asked to watch it in cinemas or either to save money. :)
