What is this system

A cinematic action RPG where you play action movie heroes. The Director's Cut system: roll a d6 pool, successes are matches (pairs, triples, four-of-a-kind). Character creation in minutes: Role (Muscle, Brain, Face) + Trope (Retired Cop, Spy on Sabbatical, Teenage Hacker). Perfect for one-shots and mini-campaigns.

Setting

Any action movie. Genre modules: spy thriller (James Bond), cop action (Die Hard), heist (Ocean's Eleven), martial arts (John Wick). Action Flicks add Ghostbusters, Indiana Jones, pulp. Your table is a film set.

What it looks like at the table
Skyscraper rooftop. The villain's helicopter takes off. 'I jump onto the landing gear!' Roll: 4 dice. Two threes — a pair! Success, you grab hold. Heat rises. GM: 'The pilot spots you and banks hard.' Next player: 'I shoot the tail rotor from a window in the next building.' Three sixes. Triple! Epic success. The helicopter spins out of control. The table erupts.
