Why Action Films Need Real Characters

<p>There are many superlative action movies which succeed particularly due to the devotion to character. Despite all the pulse-pounding action,&nbsp;<em>The Raid 2&nbsp;</em>(2014) is really a story about a cop trying to survive undercover so he can return to his family.&nbsp;<em>Seven Samurai&nbsp;</em>(1954) thrills, not because of lavish set pieces or well-choreographed action, but because we deeply care about the seven men who put their lives on the line for the greater good. Meanwhile,&nbsp;<em>Terminator 2: Judgement Day&nbsp;</em>(1991) resonates as we come to love the relationship between a boy and his cyborg in a frightening, uncertain world.</p> <p><a href="https://fanfare.pub/why-action-films-need-real-characters-fb631f62ec04"><strong>Website</strong></a></p>
