That might be the Schwarzenegger/Stallone-type action hero, but there are more types. Bruce Willis usually plays "everyman" type heroes (McClane being the best example) who aren't so over-the-top.
Also, I do appreciate that movies aren't supposed to be perfectly realistic (otherwise, I wouldn't enjoy them). However, action heroes who seem almost like real-life, normal guys (but just happen to be smarter and braver than meets the eye) allow me to suspend disbelief more easily.
