10 Classic '90s Action Movies That Defy Reality (CBR.com)

"In today's films we're bombarded with gods, super tech geniuses, and answering the question if we have a soul or not. The suspension of disbelief has always been tested, yet in the '90s it felt like the collective moviegoing world was asked to suspend that disbelief even more for the sake of spectacle. Before comic book movies were in vogue, American cinema was filled with heroes with big muscles, one-liners, and over-the-top action that was pure spectacle. Rooted in reality, these films would crank up the disbelief to 11 and wouldn't let go for 90 or so minutes. As one would bask in the warmth of the explosions these films provided, it wouldn't be until much later that one would begin to question the validity of some of the actions that took place." - cbr.com
