It would bo nice to think that action movio
directors and screenwriters would recognize when
a formula becomes stale. Perhaps they could
release a film that didn't include catchy one-lin
ers to introduce every climactic action sequence.
Or maybe, for once, they could devise a plot that
actually surprises the audience, so we can do
more than anticipate the conclusion of each scene
as they occur. .
