10 Action Movies Where The Action Is Realistic

Despite being such a popular genre, action movies often struggle to create realistic stunts and action sequences, making those with plausible – yet still thrilling – action scenes all the more impressive. Many action films become hyper-focused on creating marvelous spectacles, causing them to include ridiculous sequences that test even the most patient audience’s suspension of belief. This type of approach was common of many popular action movies from the 1990s, and still persists today with franchises like Fast & Furious. On the other hand, some films manage to create grounded action sequences that elevate the film’s overall feel of authenticity.
