Contemporary art knows no boundaries and is developing in various directions. For example, the film industry has dozens of different genres according to versions of international ratings. However, suitable films can combine several directions at once and due to this be the most successful and box office. Classic cinema, which would reflect only one direction, is extremely difficult to find today. Most contemporary paintings include several genres, storylines, key images, and only at the expense of this are able to attract the attention of a global audience.
Historical genre
Useful films of this genre describe historical events in which fictional characters or prototypes of real people take part. However, this does not prevent them from containing the features of melodrama, action or biography. It is worth noting that a historical film is almost always a quality product worthy of attention. Knowing what happened in the past is very useful for all the inhabitants of the planet, because the story is very instructive.
The most suitable films of this genre:
- Russian cinema with the features of a military genre: "And the dawns here are quiet."
- Another domestic cinema combining historical and biographical genre: “Gagarin. The first in space. ”
- Touching historical drama: The Titanic.
- An exciting war film describing the historical events of 1184: The Kingdom of Heaven.
Biographical genre
This section is dedicated to films that describe the life of a particular person. As a rule, these are prominent political figures, legends of the underworld, sports champions, great travelers. For instance:
- Hannibal.
- "Marie Antoinette."
- "Poddubny."
- "Sonka the Goldhand".
- "Kon-Tiki."
- "Legend number 17".
Disaster Films
The films of this section are always spectacular and exciting. Good disaster films are an unusual plot that describes the destruction of an entire city or world due to some natural or man-made disasters. If you like entertainment and a sea of ​​vivid emotions, then you should watch such films. For example, about natural disasters:
- "Storm".
- "Tsunami".
- "Impossible".
Or a description of man-made incidents that caused major damage: Metro, Britanic. It is worth noting that working in this genre is very difficult, so good disaster films are almost always world classics.
Comedy genre
An ideal option to distract from difficult work and spend time with your family is to watch a fun movie with a happy ending. Moreover, a happy ending in such pictures is mandatory, no matter what trials the characters share.
Useful comedy films do not leave after watching a heavy sediment in the soul, and sometimes even filled with deep meaning, have a bright plot. It is worth noting that just in this genre there are a lot of vulgar works of low quality, which may not even be very funny.
Among the good comedies, the following pictures can be distinguished:
- "Gentlemen of fortune".
- "An explosion from the past."
- "We are the Millers".
- "Terminal".
- "Such different twins".
- Bitter and Bitter 2.
Dramatic genre
This direction is very capacious and, as a rule, is associated with many others. A drama can be either a suitable film about love, or an adventure or war movie. The emphasis in it is always a conflict, a difficult situation, the experience of the characters, which can be of a different nature. Drama is not necessarily a tragic story, but there may not be a happy ending in the film.
This genre may include features of an adventure film, such as Pompeii, historical (Moths), fantasy (Night Watch), as well as horror, psychological thriller or melodrama.
Adventure genre

The adventure genre can also have action movie touches, for example: The Hunger Games, Divergent. And also fiction can be attributed to this category: the famous “Matrix”, “Time Machine”, “Armageddon”.
Fantasy movies
In a separate category, it is worth highlighting the paintings in this section. They are distinguished by a fairy tale plot that makes the movie accessible to the viewer of all ages. It is worth distinguishing the direction of fantasy from fiction, since both of them have a lot of unique properties. A fairy tale story can be a little comical, scary or romantic, while it is absolutely always instructive and kind.
From the fantasy genre it is worth watching the following films:
- "The beauty and the Beast".
- "Jack is the conqueror of the giants."
- "Cinderella".
- "Snow White and the Hunter."
Indian film
Films shot in India always have a special touch and plot. Even if the actors stop dancing and singing, anyway, even an inexperienced audience will distinguish such a movie. In any case, we must pay tribute to the Indian films that won the hearts of viewers around the world.
Special characters and temperament of characters, rich plot, grotesque, features of several genres, special effects - all this is present in almost all Indian films. The most remembered of them are “Zita and the Gita”, “Disco Dancer”, “Samrat”, “Will it come tomorrow or not?”.
Melodrama

- "Choice." The film is about an inveterate bachelor who has never been constant in relations and suddenly fell in love with his charming neighbor Gabi.
Fantasy
Films of this genre have a scientific component and a more real basis than mysticism and fairy tales. Any non-trivial phenomenon in science fiction films has a scientific basis, logical or predictable.
Among films of this genre there are a huge number of box office paintings, for example, Avatar, Prometheus. Some films tell about unexplored properties of time and space, for example: “The time loop”, “Butterfly effect”, “Source code”. Sometimes such a picture may be prophetic in nature, such as, say, “Inhabited Island”.
Horror
Cinema of this genre is a great way to get new emotions, feel the adrenaline rush and get rid of negative energy. Good horror movies are always a full-screen spectacle full of sudden frightening moments. It can be a mystical thriller, for example: “The Spell”, “Mirrors”, the fantastic horror movie “The Darkness” or the crime thriller “Lake of Paradise”, “Texas Chainsaw Massacre”. Some stories are so terrifying that any other films after them seem like childish pranks, such as Alien.
Good movies about zombies (new)
Special and original are stories about the dead who (stories, of course) have their fans. For example, only in 2016 several such films were released:
- "Train to Busan." This is a story about a young guy and windy girls, which begins as a harmless youth comedy, but gradually develops into a zombie apocalypse.
