Movie Genres that I Like

Cinema - the seventh art – deserves appreciation. There are two types of movies: one is serious, designed to make the audience think, and the other entertains and amuses moviegoers. I like both genres because the former educates and entertains me.

Every seriously-made film is a lesson. For instance, "Hachiko," released in 2008, is a lesson about love and loyalty. “The Pursuit of Happyness” featuring Will Smith, teaches me how unfair life is and how not to give up pursuing happiness and dreams. Another example is the Korean thriller, “I Saw the Devil” starring two household names Choi Min Sik and Lee Byung Hun. The film shows me how cruel life can be and the consequences of the cycle of vengeance and hatred. On the other hand, “Hacksaw Ridge” teaches me that we can express courage and commitment differently. In short, this type of motion picture teaches me about love and loyalty, in-your-face reality and determination to overcome it, the consequences of violence and vengeance, and the commitment to the ideology.

Amusing and entertaining films help me decompress in various ways. For example, I love to watch movies starred by Jackie Chan because they bring me laughter and merriment. Also, the trilogy of “The Bourne Identity," “The Bourne Supremacy,” and “The Bourne Ultimatum” captivates and excites me with the thrilling and fast-paced plot combined with actions. Besides, Marvel Studio’s movies like Doctor Strange, Thor, and Endgame satisfy and spoil me with fantasies. Lastly, “Too Fast Too Furious” contains high-speed and virtually impossible car-chasing scenes making me feel a surge of adrenaline inside me. So, this type of film makes me laugh, thrilled and excited.

In conclusion, I love both types of movies. One genre enriches my thoughts and understanding of life, and the other relieves stress and uplifts my mood.
