Framing

This really stylistic/taste territory, not right/wrong IMO.

There is what plays as a weird jump cut/line cross near the beginning when it goes from the wide of the two guys and the clown to the medium. The clown was in the middle, now he is on the right....

Tendency to center things right in the middle of the frame that I personally don't like, but again, that's opinion/taste.

While there may be style/taste issues... the shots really didn't 'do' anything for me to draw me into the sequences... pretty much eye-level shots, and as noted, the players centrally arranged, did not 'build' some effect.

For the opening sequence, would have had the 2 guys and Clown differently arranged so, there wasn't a need to jump to the other side of the group to get an 'over the shoulder'... sort of... shot.

If the two guys are trying to 'muscle' the clown... I'd probably have stayed with the same down street setup, but moved in to have the two guys act as blocking pillars and the clown in sharp focus, looking up to the 'impending doom, if the Clown does not give the 'right' answers'.

As an example.
