Target Audience for an Action film

Target Audience

The audience for an action film is usually male and and between the ages of 12-24. This is because the films usually have a certificate of 12/15 which can maximize the viewing of the film. I think action films appeal to a male audience because they prefer the fast pace and fight scenes where as women prefer a comedy or a romantic film. A lot of teenagers and young adults will enjoy action films as they have a lot of fighting and explosions which they like. I think that the modern places action films are set  engage the audience because they will know the popular destinations of the film. I think that men prefer the tension in films because they will become engages and feel a part of the film. This could be of the particular situation or because its entertaining to them. I feel that teenagers like fighting games which they may feel the action films will include. This will help them understand the film better as they will know games which involve action.

I think that some films are turned into games which makes the teenage audience want to see the film and also will attract them to the action genre. Boys like to experiment with stunts and fighting which is another reason why I think that teenage boys tend to see an action film more. Also, I think that an action is much more masculine which allows the protagonist in the film to inspire them to either look like them or to act like how they do. This may be because it attracts female attention or they want to seem more powerful.
