- Within many thriller openings there are often frequent scenes of action, which is present in this case.
- There is also usually a morally ambiguious, yet resouceful male protagonist.
- In this opening, it starts at stage 2 out of the 5 stages of literary development which means that the film starts in a state of disequilibrium, which is not uncommon for a thriller opening.
- This opening also includes an exotic location, which adds to the mystery.
- The mise-en-scene includes very expensive looking costumes and the set is also very elaborately designed. This is common with thriller openings and gives it a stylish, lavish atmosphere. In this case it helps to achieve the intended 'dream-like' tone.
The most noticeable difference with the Inception opening is that there are no opening title credits.
