Your case study is splendidly organised and consistently identifies and confidently explains the purpose of generic aspects of mise-en-scene. You are particularly strong on the roles of Jason and his passive driver Billy indicating that in a sense Billy has made a pact with the devil! These two characters are also binary opposites, with Billy's dark costume indicating a desire to hide in the shadows whilst as you explain Jason's brash shirt and bling jewellery indicates his arrogance and conceit, much like Bill in the opening of Kill Bill 1. You may wish to add this as another inter-textual reference.
Your inter textual references strengthen though perhaps needed further explanation; your references to lighting, camera angles and movement and to locations and sound are excellent.
Please revise your section on costume. You need to emphasise that Billy's brash shirt and jewellery indicates arrogance and conceit and his criminal past indicates greed. Whilst Billy's costume suggests he is passive and naïve. Billy's costume suggests he is an ordinary young man who has unwittingly found himself in extra ordinary circumstances. Thus as an recognisable boy the audience can identify with Billy.
Level 3/4(B/A) with small revisions as indicated above I would place this at Level 4: Grade A
