In the Smallville universe, Warrior Angel is a fictional comic book with many similarities and parallels to the story of Superman. In this episode, a movie version of the fictional comic book Warrior Angel, is being filmed in Smallville, with scenes being filmed on the Kent farm. The plot is set up by having Clark save the life of the famous actress who's co-starring in the movie. Like so many early Smallville episodes, someone starts to suspect Clark's powers, and yet another Smallville psycho comes forward.

My favourite aspect of season 7 was how the writers and producers brought the show back to the basics. Out were some of the overly complex and mythological plots, and back is some old fashioned storytelling and small town adventure stories. For the record, I'm a fan of the complex mythological stories as well, but it's always good to have some balance with simple entertaining episodes like this. Even though "Action" is a simple, and some might say generic Smallville episode, I think it's own of the most all around entertaining of the season.
