The results of this research show that not all parts of subtitling strategies are used. The findings revealed that there are only five strategies out of ten subtitling strategies proposed by Gottlieb (1992, p.166) used in Ride Along movie. The strategies include expansion (one data), paraphrase (six data), imitation (eight data), decimation (four data) and deletion (one data).
