Starring Patrick Warburton (“Seinfeld,” “The Tick,” “Men In Black II,” “Rules of Engagement)”, “The Action Hero’s Guide To Saving Lives” is a laugh-out-loud action-comedy that takes you behind the scenes of Ace Mulligan’s perilous and not-always-successful mission to stop the bad guys, get the girl, and save the day. It’s not always easy being an action hero.
