BuzzFeed's 21 Action Movies Where the Hero Is Basically Normal

"Twitter discourse often brings up the fact that most action vehicles these days are all about superheroes, secret agents, highly-trained soldiers, rogue cops, or indestructible contract killers. However, there are plenty of movies from previous years that put normal, completely unexceptional people at the front and center of the action, which shook up the formula of the genre to often great effect. With this in mind, I've assembled 21 action flicks where regular folk kick butt, take on villains, and rise to the occasion without any particular sets of skills." - buzzfeed.com
