This study performed an interdisciplinary research on action movies released from 1930 to 2009 based on the Internet Movie Database (iMDB). It targeted synopses and keyword tags of 799 movies and found there were major recurrent themes of “Rescue,” “Revenge,” “Chase,” “Thwart,” “Abduct,” “Escape,” “Sacrifice,” “Thieve,” “Betray,” and “(Dis-)inform.” The results show that fight scenes have increased their use of guns and martial arts since WWII; heroes have changed from groups to individuals; and background locations have changed from large scale outdoor towns and war zones, to more confined areas such as buildings and cars, though the variety of locations has increased to include multiple cities and countries.
