RESEARCH: Genre & Sub Genre

The genre of a movie indicates the mood of the movie. Comedies are funny, thrillers create suspense and horror movies are used to frighten the audience.

Movies often have sub genres. Having a sub genre widens the target audience of a movie. For example the movie Limitless creates a mysterious feeling along with a bit of comedy.

Limitless is a thriller comedy. This film in particular has many twists but the thrill is still there. The film is able to maintain its main genre but also brings along sub genres to increase its like-ability.

The thriller aspect of the film helps maintain my attention, the continious twists in the movie keeps me entertained and makes me want to see more. The comedy side of the movie makes sure that i dont get the sense of boredom because of the over-load of the 'thriller' aspect of the movie.
