Action films are a genre characterized by chase sequences, fights, shootouts, explosions, and stunt work, with scholarly debate since the 1980s about whether they prioritize spectacle over narrative. The genre evolved from early 1910s action-adventure films to the contemporary definition emerging with New Hollywood in the late 1960s-1970s, drawing from war, crime, and western films. The classical period of the 1980s featured weaponized heroes, followed by the postclass era influenced by Hong Kong action cinema and computer-generated imagery. The neoclassical phase after 9/11 returned to early forms, with comic book adaptations becoming the most commercially successful 21st-century action franchises.
