What were action movies like before the 80s-90s golden age?
You got hong kong kung fu cinema in the 70s, but otherwise just people standing around shooting fake guns at each other, car chases, and explosions everywhere

>>217424691That dog ain’t looking good
>>217424691They were westerns but set in the 70
>>217424691Most stuff from the 60s is extremely dated, relying on the James Bond gadget fad.You've got a few good ones like Peckinpah's. Generally with a hero down on his luck, it's much more down to earth and grim than 80s slop
>>217424691instead of a bunch of action they only had one or two actions at the end
Mostly bad. See Death Race 2000.
