Detective

Detectives are a special genre in the film industry, the plot of which revolves around a crime and its disclosure. The main characters are often detectives, police, lawyers, criminals, their victims or prisoners. Detective films are very popular. This is due to the fact that viewers can look into the criminal world without touching it in real life. The genre appeared at the time of the emergence of silent cinema and since then remains extremely popular.

Detectives and their subgenres

Today it is difficult to single out films that would be purely detective. As a rule, other categories are mixed with them, which created several different subgenres with their own characteristics:

• action movies - detective investigations usually take place amid explosions, gunfights, and action («Escape plan», «Access code „Cape town“», «Extraordinary adventures of Adele»);
• comedic - funny moments mix with the plot, which help the audience relax a little while watching («Suburbicon», «Simple request», «Pokemon Detective Pikachu»);
• adventure - the main character is trying to use not only physical strength, but also his mind in the investigation of the crime («Preacher», «Euphoria»);
• dramas - events cause a lot of emotions, the experiences of the main characters and how they deal with them are shown («Shepherd's Diary», «Deadly alive», «Personal buyer»);
• fantastic - a crime in the distant future or in a fictional world, the presence of elements of magic, new unknown technologies («Happy new day of death», «Blade runner», «Project „Blue Book“»);
• melodramatic - against the background of events between the main characters, feelings may flare up, a crime is committed in the name of love, or the main character avenges his beloved («Love and revenge», «Head hunter»);
• criminal - a similar film is different in that its plot contains criminal atrocities, there is always the one who committed the crime, as well as the investigator who unravels the riddle («Illusion of deception», «Mystery in their eyes»);
• thrillers - such a detective keeps in suspense until the very end, it is difficult to predict how the film will end («Enemy», «Sleeping», «The curse of a nun»).
