Is there a word or phrase for a movie/book like this? |

For example:
Scene 1 Hero is involved in car accident which was really no accident. Has minimal injuries. Scene 2 Hero goes home, and that very evening must escape from back door as bad guys break in the front door. Scene 3 Hero flees bad guys in car, and other bad guys are tailing him....
Get the picture? Just one thing after another. (it occurs to me I didn't include a fight scene :silly:)
You may ask why am I posting this. I just returned a historical novel to the library which was similar to this scenario (except no car, but a carriage accident). After about 40 pages, I said the heck with this.

The new Indiana Jones flick is another example of what I'm talking about.
