SKYFALL

SKYFALL
DESCRIBING THE GENRE


Some of the main genres in the film Skyfall are:
Thriller
Romance
Action
Adventure
Crime Fiction


The film  has a lot of different emotions, and every scene is different. Its difficult to say what the main genre of the film is as there are so many different themes throughout each scene in the film. I think that Thriller is definitely a main and common theme/genre throughout the film Skyfall, because as soon as the film starts it goes straight into the action, and not long after Bond gets shot. This also related to Action and Adventure and Crime Fiction. James Bonds mission is to protect everyone from villains therefore he has to commit crimes along the way to get rid of the bad people.I also think that Romance is a genre as James Bond is a very herioc figure, so women are bound to fall in love with someone who is like that. Bond is well known for having a 'bond girl' with him. However Bond isn't that in love with her however we could still classify this as romance. I think that it is good that they also put Romance in a crime fiction action film as it makes the calm down about the Violence, shooting, explosions and tension in the film and makes people feel as if the film is more realistic and romance is something that happens in real life situations. There is a lot of action in sky fall and a lot of shooting and a lot of tension, but Bond is 'invisible' and we know that he can get past anything but the action and adventure makes us feel unsure and excited about what will happen next.
