One way in which the characters in the extract fit the action adventure genre is that Nic Angel fits the classic archetypical role of the hero and tries to save the day, the reason he fits the classic role of the hero is that he is a police officer and all throughout the film he has shown his dedication to his role as a police officer trying to bring justice to the murders occurring within Sandford as he seems to be the only person trying to do something about it showing his good nature and desire for justice against evil, typical characteristics of the hero role in Propp's character theory. This makes it more interesting and enjoyable for the viewers as the mystery behind the killings is revealed we support Nic Angel as he attempts to stop them and uphold the law a key ideology behind his Character and role, as we realise that the village has been corrupted by a group of people that's ideologies oppose that of Nic Angel who represents good and we support him against the villains in this binary opposition between good and evil (the people behind the killings). Both of these are very typical in action adventure films. Another way in which the extract fits the action adventure genre is that the climaxing conflict of the movie is very dangerous and thrilling for the audience . This makes it more interesting and enjoyable for the viewers. It also emphasises how much danger the hero is in.
