Increasingly, foreign words appear in the Russian language. From the younger generation, terms are heard that are not understandable to older people. Using such words, a person embellishes his speech, introducing something new. One of them is action.
It would seem that the word "action" has a fairly understandable meaning. Literally translated from English, action means "action." Everything that is called by this word is characterized by the presence of irrepressible energy, impetuosity, violent activity of the participants, and the action event itself is the center of activity.
Action Cinema
Most often, the concept of action is found in the description of the cinema genre, which took shape in the 70s of the 20th century in the United States, where one after another films about superheroes who single-handedly defeated the enemy and saved the world were released on the wide screen. Films with the postscript "action" are still mostly action films, less often - a completely different movie - historical, detective.
A characteristic feature of the genre: a constant change of actions, endless adventures and chases, shootouts and fights. Very dynamic and exciting stories are attributed specifically to the action genre.
Action Games
First, cinema appeared, and then computer games began to be created similar to such films. On the one hand, almost all games in which there is competition can be attributed to this genre, since their creators at the development stage are trying to ensure that the game captures the spirit of the player, carries away the eventfulness.
The platform for creating such a game can be absolutely any. From the player in action games, a great concentration of attention is required in order to keep up with the frequently changing plot and environment, to have a quick reaction and the ability to react with lightning speed to an emerging threat. In a word, you will definitely not be bored with such a game, but you will not be able to relax either.
Action painting
In the middle of the XX century, such a direction of painting appeared, which characteristically reflects the individuality and handwriting of the artist. Most often, this is an arbitrary display of a momentary artistic impulse, which is displayed in the brush lines on the canvas - this is also a manifestation of an action, but in fine art.
Action Psychology
In psychology, the word action refers to any action that leads to active behavior in certain situations. The best example of this is the behavior of a young child. He does not think about his actions, but acts according to what he feels at the moment.
Action dance
In such a dance, sharp and clear movements prevail, most often with arms and legs. It should be noted that for a long time action dance remained outside the framework of dance culture and was considered an element of the subculture, but at the beginning of the 21st century it finally took shape as an independent movement, became part of dance festivals. The movements of such a dance, despite all their expressiveness and harshness, must be musical and coincide with the rhythm and beat of the music.
