Whether you’re a fan of science fiction, history or modern tales of revenge, Hulu has a little something for everyone trying to satisfy their need to watch some good-old-fashioned action cinema from the comfort of their homes.
ARE PREGNANT WOMEN AT RISK FOR CORONAVIRUS?
To help you plan the next movie night that’ll leave you diving for cover behind your couch, below is a rundown of the top 5 action films currently streaming on Hulu:
‘The Book Of Eli’
This 2010 movie is perfect for anyone looking for a good post-apocalyptic western with all the action and violence anyone can handle. Starring well-known actors such as Denzel Washington, Mila Kunis and Gary Oldman, “The Book Of Eli” plays like a slower, more grounded “Mad Max.”
What follows is an adventure that sees Eli attempt to fend off Carnegie’s numerous attempts to steal his precious book as he continues his nearly impossible quest west.
The film tells the story of Capt. Benjamin Martin, a veteran of the French and Indian War who initially refuses to join his fellow South Carolina residents in rising up against British rule for fear of another bloody war. However, when his eldest son joins the Continental Army and inadvertently brings the fight to his family’s home, Martin is forced back into combat to try and free his home from the tyrannical British rule. Specifically, from Col. William Tavington of the British Army, who, without spoiling anything, is particularly nasty to the Martin household.
While the film is only loosely based on historical events, it does a wonderful job of tracking the American Revolution from the beginning until the bitter end while telling the emotional story of a man desperate to be free of conflict.
Not to be confused with the original 1974 film starring Charles Bronson, the 2018 remake of “Death Wish” starring Bruce Willis is a modern take on a classic story of revenge and vigilantism that’s sure to satisfy your quest for good action content.
HOW DANGEROUS IS CORONAVIRUS?
The movie is a classic revenge tale that follows the original movie somewhat accurately but definitely takes turns in its own direction to modernize the story.

As the plot thickens, Hunt’s list of allies dwindles as it becomes clear that the terrorists did more than regroup, they infiltrated some of the highest organizations in the world.
