Family

Family cinema can be called a special genre. The whole family gathers behind these paintings to spend a soulful evening together. Watching interesting, kind, sometimes funny films causes only positive emotions and good impressions. Everyone can watch a family movie: parents can put their problems aside for a while, and the child will enjoy a fascinating story.

Films for children and adults: subgenres

Today, such films can be divided into several main subgenres, each of which differs in its features:

• adventures - unusual and interesting events, to get out of which the main character can only be with the help of his ingenuity («Belle and Sebastian: Friends Forever», «Peng: Travel to Netland», Harry Potter series);
• dramas - experiences, complex feelings, difficult events, which in the end lead to a good and positive ending («The incredible journey of Mr. Spivet», «How to skip school for good», «Miracles from heaven»);
• comedies - a lot of jokes and fun moments that can amuse children and their parents («Street cat nicknamed Bob», «Cats versus dogs», «Fir Madness»);
• detectives - unraveling secrets, crimes («Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix»);
• action movies - usually such a family movie describes the process of learning a child's martial arts and his opposition to evil («Thunderbolt»);
• science fiction - often movie plots for all ages take place in a magical, imaginary world, in space or in the future («Flight navigator», «Short circuit», «Espen in the Troll Kingdom»).

The most important difference between family films is the fact that they are practically devoid of complex tragic scenes. Their main purpose is to teach something to the child, to show how best to act in a particular situation, to amuse or cheer up.

That is why Russian and foreign family cinema like to watch at the weekend, when the whole family gathers in front of the screen. There are also whole series, thanks to which you can have fun and usefully spend your free time.
