It's an RPG but the action is in real-time so it plays like an action game also. I don't recall it being real difficult, but I played like 15 years ago.
No specific order:
Police Story
Big Trouble in Little China
A Better Tomorrow
Superman
Honorable mentions: Way of the Dragon, The Thing(John Carpenter one), Clue, Terminator 1-2, A Fish Called Wanda
