action comedy
Funny chase flick
Action comedy is a film or television genre that combines high-energy physical sequences—chases, fights, explosions—with humor.
The comedy often arises from mismatched partners, fish-out-of-water situations, or characters who crack jokes under pressure: Beverly Hills Cop, Rush Hour, 21 Jump Street.
The blend aims to deliver thrills without taking itself too seriously.
