 Roll call:

Some weakness of Roll call were some shaky camera work which was distracting from what was occurring in the scene, the mug shots that were shown were too out of the frame, the showing of the title in the opening looked out of place, one actor had broken the third wall and looked at the camera while talking. Some strengths were the camera zooms were very good and they were stable, the props were utilized correctly which enhanced the film, and the acting for the most part of professional.

New everything:

New everything was in my opinion was a little sloppy for the reasons of the weaknesses being the transitions were sloppy, shaky camera work, sound quality was bad, it seemed very uninteresting as the story had no dynamics or something that made it stand out. The strengths of this were that at times the lighting had focused on the main character and the story had a structure to what was happening to it was easily understood.

Dreamland: 

In Dreamland the many strengths were that the scene was very established to what was happening, there was creative use of camera skills and editing, great camera quality, appropriate use of camera shots. Some of the couple weaknesses that were in this film were that it was a little unstructured and it relied a lot fo reversing for the first half of the opening scenes.

Dear Lover:

Dear lover was a very interesting film opener as the story was well established by the use of many scenes in such a short time, the explanation of the story was clear, various  types of camera shots, and it left the audience easing for what would happen next. The weaknesses were that the camera work was shaky, lighting was too broad and had no dynamics to it.

Dare to thrill:

Dare to thrill was my personal favorites for its many strengths such as great use of music, the advantage of editing in words, the dynamic and focused camera movement, the engage to the audience through excitement, properly setting the scene, putting the title in at a proper time and not an awkward one, and lastly leaving the audience of edge leaving them yearning for more. I have found no weaknesses for this movie opener.
