What is the crime genre?
Crime films are films that focus on the lives of criminals. The stylistic approach to a crime film varies from realistic portrayals of real-life criminal figures, to the far-fetched evil doings of imaginary arch-villains.

1. Crime-comedies- ‘Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels’, ‘Boondock Saints’
