Marvel's Avengers Assemble (2012) Example of a recent action film.

This film is a very good example of a action film, as it has many conventions of a action film, such as big explosions, fight scenes and death of loved ones. There is the conventional antagonist, in this case it is Loci and there is also the protagonists, who are Iron Man, Thor, Hulk and Captain America. Throughout this film, and within this trailer there is loud upbeat music, which always keeps the audience's attention. Not only does the music keep the attention of the audience but so do the futuristic vehicles and weapons used in the movie, which a unrealistic but for any boy is a dream come true.

This film has none stop, explosions, fighting and weaponry all the way through, again, another reason why this is such a good example of a action film because that is all that contains in this film. From this trailer it gives the audience a chance to see a lot of the fight scenes making them want to watch it even more. Before this film came out the individual hero films was out, and those who enjoyed those, really wanted to see this film as all the heroes are united, making hero fans extremely excited about this. From watching this film myself it is much more than action, it also has humour in some parts making it even more enjoyable to watch. I think it would be easier to make my storyboard based on a big box office action film like this.
