Michael: 

I would give this film opening Level 4. This is because for the reasons as it is very creative and shows originality in the storyline. It also has very good acting and the students show professionalism in their roles and play the characters very well. Another reason for there high score is the filming as the camera quality is at a high standard and also the sound is very clear and crisp which can be heard very well and clearly for the audience. The different variety of shots also gives it a professional look with the titles in the right order and in the same font with the same timings.
