NCIS

Equalizer


Genre:Action/crime
Robert McCall (Denzel Washington) is a retired black ops government operative who lives in Boston, Massachusetts and works at a Home Mart hardware store, where he befriends many of his co-workers and also tries to help a security guard trainee named Ralphie pass his qualification exam. McCall has promised his recently deceased wife that he'd leave his old life behind, but is compelled to act after his teenage friend Teri (Chloë Grace Moretz) whose real name is Alina, was seen being mistreated by her pimp. Alina's life was destroyed at the age of five or six when she was a victim of sex trafficking by the Russian Mafia and then became their sex slave and forced into prostitution. The characters are known for action and thriller movies such as the Equalizer. Denzel Washington is known for his roles in action movies and all of them are hits so this is why they decided to use him in this film. Typical hollywood action film.There is plenty of iconography typical of an action genre: a car chase, gunshots, violence, technology, running and jumping from a bridge, explosions and smashing glass. All of these are typical of the action or thriller genres - in connection with the narrative, we can confidently say this is a thriller. The film is set in Boston NY and the scenes are situated in central NY where there is plenty of Mafia gangs.

Let's Be Cops


Genre:Action/comedy
It's the ultimate buddy cop movie except for one thing: they're not cops. When two struggling pals dress as police officers for a costume party, they become neighborhood sensations. But when these newly-minted "heroes" get tangled in a real life web of mobsters and dirty detectives, they must put their fake badges on the line. The characters play roles of comedy which matches the genre throughout the film. the fact that they are fake cops already tells you that this film is a (joke) which also matches the genre. we can see in the trailer that the two actors are described as two mates who fall into a world of misleading.The film is set in New York and most scenes of the trailer are mainly located in crime scenes where they have to solve problems which they are not expecting such as car chases, gunshots, violence etc.

The film setting matches the genre since its a comedy movie there are many places where chases and gunshots take place.
