The Least Action Heroes
Terrific action movies like Die Hard entertain us with white-knuckle suspense, larger-than-life villains and wiseass dialogue.....but this is not a book about them.
This is a book about those 'other' action movies. The kind that star Chuck Norris or Pamela Anderson and feature a henchman who says things like: "I used to f**k guys like you in prison!" From Mexican wrestling movies to Jean-Claude Van Damme and Steven Seagal, The Last Action Heroes tells you everything you need to know about good-bad action films.
Why is Demolition Man the most prophetic movie of the 90s? How did Maximum Overdrive help end the Cold War? Can an action heroine go further with personality and charm than with a leather catsuit and big ta-tas? And does falling in love with a transvestite really cure colour blindness the way it did for Bruce Willis in Colour Of Night?
If you crave satisfaction, this is the place to find that action! Coming to this theatre as its next attraction is the motion picture that will put you in traction......The Least Action Heroes!!!!
