This is a medium close up shot of the antagonists lined up next to each other perhaps to seem more threatening and dangerous. This shot has enough background to show the audience this is set at a train station. The medium close-up also shows us that these people are wearing some sort of uniform, perhaps to convey they are the police. The fact that they are all looking in the same direction may suggest they have found what they were looking for.
This shows a long shot of the change in the scene to an alleyway where you can see Tom Cruise in the background running away from the police (as seen in the first picture). This hints that some action is about to take place, making the audience feel more tense. The main focus when you first look at this shot is the rusty car, perhaps to signify that this next scene is set in a dark, isolated place, adding to the tension.
The close up of Tom Cruise's face allows us to see the emotion in his face. This shows that he may be ready to surprise the audience to create a fast-paced scene, maybe to even create juxtaposition due to the differences in the scenes. However, just looking at the protagonist's face, he seems almost scared or weak and makes the audience feel sorry for him.
