Crime and Gangster Genre (Part 3)

To conclude the research on the Crime and Gangster genre comparing the general build of the genre over the years.

The crime over years stays with the fact that violence one of the most important aspects that points out it's a crime film that the audience is watching.

Over the years crime films have captured audience attention by giving out hints to let the audience solve the mystery behind the crime, like who committed the murder, like a jigsaw puzzle where the audience has to piece together.

Crime films also have the need to make the criminal increasing intelligent and finding new ways in which the criminal can cover up his crimes, giving the criminal strength will help in showing they can escape the justice that is after him this could be the police or someone higher in power.

Modern crime films uses hybrid of different sub genre's mostly used genre's are: Crime/Comedy, Crime/Romance, Crime/Action, however it is not common to see two or three sub genre's mixed into crime these days to create a less serious crime story or a extreme spray of excitement in the crime.

In general the genre of crime and gangster movies have changed in today's modern time but the structure of the crime and gangster still exist and still used today to create modern films these include the violence, drugs, sex, the criminal, the justice that stands in the criminal ways and the punishment.
