questio


Q 1.  Explain two ways the characters and/ or events fit the action adventure genre.
Use examples from the extract. [10 marks]
 You can tell this is an action adventure film because of the hero fighting the villain. The character cage is the protagonist, this is the character that drives the narrative forward, through the choices they make and the actions they take. During the start if the film it is obvious that he isn’t the best of fighters and he is the underdog, but because he keeps coming back alive he makes progress. This is a convention because in action and adventure the character is being the underdog and the audience thinks he will die. This creates tension because of the expectation that he doesn’t stand a chance without any military training or help. When he doesn’t die, this makes his victory all the more impressive and the movie more entertaining.
