"Due to its inherently violent nature, one of the most consistently controversial genres in film history is the action genre. Dating back to the early 1930s, the influx of violent gangster films being produced at the time was a primary driving factor for the Production Code being implemented. Action films have been controversial over the years for numerous reasons, including exponential levels of gratuitous violence, the glorification of criminal activity, and the resulting copycat crimes that stem from viewing violent films. Although divisive, many controversial action films have grown to be beloved by both audiences and critics alike. A significant number of the most controversial action films are now considered among the greatest films of all time." - cbr.com
