Action Cliché's

Action movies are some of the most exiting films out there. This is due to the many cliches found in this genre of movie. Cliches such as explosions and "muscle men" are used to great extent and add a layer of exitement to an already exiting genre. Action cliches include...
Explosions and big guns
Incredibly inaccurate enemies.
Usually ex armed forces.
Racially stereotypical enemies e.g. Russians
Femme fataeles, excluding Angelina Jolie.
Slow motion is used widely in action films for dramatic effect, as well as the famous bullet-dodging effect, popularised by The Matrix.
