2 movies I probably wouldn't watch if you paid me.
I saw those Matty but what people expect from reality and cinema these days is just absurd. It used to be that you wanted cinema to capture reality. Now we want cinema to blow us away and it's not realistic or cool enough if it doesn't cut it.

Normal people in that kind of work are cheesy ass self proclaimed badasses just like Travolta's character or by the book dweebs like the other guy. Situations like that (I am talking about the overall plot) do happen frequently. That is why we enjoyed it.
