Wishful Agentism
The self-attained thought that occurs upon watching an action film and believing that you could emulate them lead character.
The films in question are ones in which one protagonist is going solo against the rest of the world (eg. The Bourne Trilogy, Shooter, Taken) whether that be the government, the law or the given enemy.
Effects can be long lasting.
