Research: Action Target Audience

Action films usually include high energy, big-budget physical stunts and chases, possibly with rescues, battles, fights, destructive events (floods, explosions, natural disasters, fires, etc.), non-stop motion, fast paced beat and adventurous, heroes or heroines battling the villain. In terms of gender, it is most likely to be males who would enjoy this genre, from a young age they would have been brought up with toys like action man and then most likely moved onto games consoles and play action games, this therefore means it would be expected for them also to find enjoyment in watching action films. The age range of these males is most likely between 14-30. In their younger years men tend to have more energy and enjoy the fast paced movies more exciting, as stereotypically, after that, they find too many of the events in these types of films, "too far-fetched" and therefore find pleasure in other movie genres.
