Dom is one of the four boys in our film opening; he seems to take the role of the leader in the group as he is in the middle of all the action and drama in the film opening. His appearance is a casual look which a typical schoolboy would wear. He wears beige chinos and a casual hoody. His character seems to be the most rebellious of the four boys as he is seen littering and jumping over gates. His character takes the role as the leader of the group in some sense as he seems to be in the centre of all the action because he is the one who catches the murder on camera and therefore automatically becomes the character where the audience will know that all the action and drama will evolve around him. Although Dom is the leader of the four boys when they spontaneously run into the murder the boys are in shock and are now scared, and they are all seen in the end running home. Dom runs home a different way to the other boys and in the end he is shown looking scared. Not the brave leader anymore!

Bradley cooper is an American film, theatre and television actor. He is well known all around the world. He has been in films such as, the A team, wedding crashers, limitless and the hangover. Although he has been in all of these films his character in the hangover (Phil Wenneck) is very much like Dom the character in our film opening. His appearance is often smart wearing trousers but also like Dom he is very causal wearing a shirt and his hair often scruffy. The reason why his character is so similar to Dom is because in the hangover he takes the role of the leader of the four boys this is because he seems to make all the decisions and also is the more dominant character. Although the four characters in are film are in most of the shots Dom takes the leader because like Bradley cooper in the hangover he is centre of all the drama, he catches the murder, he loses his wallet which contains personal information, he runs home a different way to the other boys so is on his own and finally at the end he is in his room, home alone and there’s a knock on the door and he sees a flash back of the incident he caught on camera and it leaves it on a cliff hanger to show that it could be the murderer after him.

Bradley coopers character in the hangover (Phil Wenneck) is similar to are character Dom because of how they both take the lead role in their groups. However the characters are slightly different in the fact that Bradley cooper in the hangover makes all the decision in the group and becomes the more dominant because he is making orders. However, although Dom takes the leader because he is in the middle of all the drama he does not make all the decisions in the group. This is how the two characters differ.
