What elements of the genre that you like?
I like that in this genre there is always some sort of chaos happening. It’s entertaining and intriguing. Drama also includes a variety of colors throughout the film and therefore is pleasing to the eye. Lastly, there is a person or people of interest that the audience gets attached to, which makes the movie even more interesting.
What elements of the genre do not appeal to you?
Some elements of drama that are not appealing is that the film can get messy. Since so much is occurring the audience may get confused or lost with the plot. They also may lose sight of the main focus of the movie. Another thing is that one of the characters may get the audience annoyed, maybe due to their sarcastic attitude. However, this may be what intrigues the audience. Lastly, drama movies may get repetitive if similar plots are always being recorded.
