Johnny English

Johnny English 
 
Johnny is an anti-hero, we can see this from his serious attitude and go getting ways yet instead of succeeding brilliantly in a normal spy movie for example James bond he fails and often hurts himself. This creates a relationship with the audience as we can relate to the normal human like tendency. The audience also gets to watch and laugh at him which is entertaining and funny. 

He is commanding to the female character and seemingly brave, we can see this by the large building he is attempting to get into. He is courageous as he is willing to in in though a sewage pipe. He seems to be attempting an amazing stunt of going into a tall building. 


The female character stays behind as the so called more powerful man checks for safety, she tells him to "be careful out there". He replies in a smooth brave tone assuring her he will. But after he hits his head very hard on the pipe. This is funny as it is showing his clumsy attitude and failure to be smooth.

  1. Clear understanding of what counts as 'heroic' and how JE fails to qualify as a traditional heroic protagonist.Some specific detail referring to events to illustrate points.
