Different genres have different forms and conventions, I looked at 3 different types of genre movies, Art house, Social realism and Hollywood action movies.
Action movies tend to be very generic in structure with it all being happy and well at the beginning before something or someone disrupts this, but by the end of the movie this is always put right and the feeling restored. The budgets for these movies are always high and big Hollywood stars are often in the central roles. Social realism films which are a British speciality in the industry often cover gritty working class situations that involve controversial subjects and values such as racism, crime, underage sex etc. They do not always end how you think they will and have un-generic features. Art house films are normally low budget productions using more skilful features rather than big actors to attract filmgoers, the films are normally qwirky and distributed by small companies looking not looking for big box office returns. Funny Ha Ha for example was produced on a miniscule budget.
