When you think back, the 2000s had a lot of forgettable action movies. And, it’s not even because they were all bad, per se. It’s just that there were so many of them back then that it’s hard to keep track sometimes. Like, do you remember the Transporter series with Jason Statham? I mean, maybe you do, but I have to constantly remind myself that it even existed (and I saw all of them).
And the thing is, I think we got so many “forgettable” action movies before 2020 because Hollywood was willing to take more risks back then. Plus, streaming hadn’t exploded yet. For example, to go back to Statham, I loved the Crank series, but a lot of people forget they even happened.
