Genre: ADVENTURE

Genre: Typically applied to works in which the protagonist or other major characters are consistently placed in dangerous situations, and a fictional character who lives by their wits and their skills is often called an adventurer. (Wikipedia)

Like: Adventures usually goes hand and hand with my favorite genre fantasy

Dislike: A lot times movies that are adventures have this never-ending quality to them that sometimes turns people off.
