Vindictive - Evaluation Task 2

Vindictive - How Does your Media Product Represent Particular Social Groups?


In these screen shots, we have the main protagonist from Vindictive compared with two characters from other action movies; Jason Bourne from the Bourne action movie series and Royce from the action movie Predators. 

From these images, we can see the characters are quite similar as they are not very muscular, as seen with some action heroes such as Rambo, but still show an element of fighting skill and strength, and also makes them look a little more intelligent and tactical. What is also similar about these characters is their clothing, as they are wearing casual,inconspicuous clothing. This means they would not stand out in public. It also suggests they are capable of completing their missions without drawing attention to themselves. 

They also share a similar expression and personality and it shows they take their missions seriously. This is conventional of an action hero as they are not typically looked at as people who have fun and take things casually. This expresses to the audience that the mission is a long and difficult one that must not be taken lightly.
