The best action film
Jump to: Newest in thread
Terminator 2 is one of the best films ever made… but you know another great action film Arnie did… Commando.
With such great one liners as “what happened to Salli?”
“I let him go”
And “don’t disturb my friend, he’s dead tired” |

Remember when I said I'll kill you last?...
I lied. |

"The first John Wicket or Equaliser. Once you've seen one the others are little same old....."
I thought John Wick 3 was the best of the series.
I've seen No4 but didn't think much of it apart from the fight scenes on the stairs.
No3 had a lot of good spots in it. |

"John Wick was okay but overrated.
The Matrix on the other hand.
Or Point Break...

Yes the Matrix was really good.
It gripped you from the very start and kept it going till the end. |

Do you not rate The Matrix as one of the best films ever made? |

So many to choose from, also it depends on mood. Right from intelligent action like The Raid, through to lazy comedy action like any Jason Statham. The Beekeeper was quite good. He took the mantle from Jean Clude.
Is Ronin action or thriller?
You could start an entire thread on the king of action, Arnie. The man is a god of action.

"Rush Hour  "
If we're talking Jackie Chan, I see your Rush Hour and raise you Rumble in the Bronx.
There's a scene that goes on for about 10 minutes where he kicks the ass of about 20 guys using everything around him |

Exactly, SET on.
If it were set on Easter Sunday, it wouldn’t be an Easter Movie |

"Interesting that a lot of these choices are from the 80s
Are good action films a thing of the past?"
I really enjoyed Sisu, it's absolutely madcap and pretty recent.
My old git choice would definitely be Hard Boiled, though. There's something about Hong Kong grittiness. |

With those car chases it's definitely action.
I'm going to throw Battle Royale in to the ring. |

Already mentioned ‘The Raid’ and certainly others like ‘The Rock’ ‘Terminator 2 & Aliens’ are up there.
To add another that doesn’t seem to appear is Dredd (Judge Dredd) with Karl Urban, why we didn’t get more of this character is a mystery to me. |

"I adore Con Air OP ♥️
Only film with the cage in ill watch 
Con Air is amazing.
But to reply to the other comment, do you not think Cage in The Rock with Connery is good?"
I cant take him seriously he plays the same role in every film like.watching elvis star he killed 60 seconds |

"The Raid. The fight scenes are really good and then Dredd decided to copy the scenario for their film.
The Raid 2 is also a good sequel."
Not even close 200AD had Dredd storylines going back to the late 70s with stories set in mega city 1s mega blocks.
Both excellent films tho and very different. |
