Romantic Comedies

Hello, can anyone name a romantic comedy/drama where there was also action involved, possibly by a female lead or even a male lead? And by action I mean car chases, stunts, etc : ) Thanks!

Jason Mirch

Mr. & Mrs. Smith, True Lies, Knight & Day, - I'm sure people can come with a LOT more!

Dustin de Yong

I found a pretty great list online of 20 great "Action Romance" films. It features some questionable choices (Casino Royale, Indiana Jones and the Lost Ark), but the majority of the list has some good inclusions.

Ryan Anzaldi

"Scott Pilgrim VS the World" is a great Rom Com/Action story, too!

Christine Capone

Thanks Ryan!

Craig D Griffiths

Same as other romcom.
