I finished writing a feature film script this month, which is about a secret agent, who is hunted by his corrupt CIA superiors. Since the S32 pitch template requires a comparison to other movies I pitched it as a mixture of "The Bourne Identity" and "Man On Fire". Anyone here, who also recently wrote an action-thriller? What are your role models in this genre? Any scripts online? Any pitch experiences?

Congratulations, which production company did you send your query letter to? Is there a sample of your script anywhere online?
@Dan, having read your work, I can attest it is catchy, funny and well-written. I would not say it is low-brow at all (either that or maybe I'm low brow too, lol)
@Dan M if it's the same script I hope you kept the title. Best. Movie. Title. Ever.
Dan, that's awesome news. I would definitely use your services for log lines and query letters, I've seen the magic that you can work with words.
Bill Martell isn´t on the Stage 32 members list.
Dan: I saw Thief Wednesday night (for like the 50th time). Kinda hard to believe that film received an "R" rating. It shows you how much times have changed since the early 1980's. I love that film - Michael Mann is definitely one of the best.
Miami Vice. My two cents.
The only advice I can give is make sure they are films people know.
