I think that Adventure movies are movies which include the main character going on a journey or a quest to save someone, something or somewhere. The main character of the story usually starts their journey alone and as time passes they gradually find more and more people who helps them.
Examples of story-lines in adventure movies:
- An outlaw fighting for justice or battling a tyrant (e.g., Robin Hood, Zorro or Star Wars) - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adventure_film
Sometimes in adventure movies the main character gets betrayed by a close friend, to create suspense and also it captures the audience's attention. often adventure movies include a
final battle where the hero would prevent the crisis from happening or the villain would be defeated.
Recently i have watched the following movies from my selected genre:
- もののけ姫 (Mononoke Hime : Princess Mononoke)
- Lord of The Ring: The Fellowship of The Ring
- Brave Story
- 天空の城ラピュタ (Laputa: City in The Sky)
There is a similarity in these movies, and that is the protagonist of the movie is required to go on a journey to accomplish something they desire. For example in Brave Story the protagonist Wataru has to find all the gems to save his mother, and in Lord of The Ring Frodo has to go and destroy the ring.
The Following Videos show these similarities:
In this clip you can see the Protagonist is traveling to a specific place which is left unknown to the audience.
This clip shows the protagonist going on a journey to find the castle in the sky and to save his friend.
In the trailer you can see that the protagonist is given a task to complete and to save the world.
