One of the best action movies I have seen is Hard Boiled by John Woo. Actually just about every John Woo (non american movies) are hardcore action.

If you want real good action you cannot go wrong with HARD BOILED, it is a total action classic. But also check out A better tomorrow 1 and 2, chow yun fat in them as well. The 2nd is really gun crazy

keikan, or too neone for that matter, this movie got pretty bad reviews cuz the critics have their heads up their asses, the best gun scenes that i've seen so far, and the action is as good as the matrix. check it out and u'll agree (well, most ppl will)

one word:


EQUILIBRIUM

and yes, it's out on dvd, they didn't advertise too much, but they sold like 1 million copies since it come out, or 1.5 million, can't remember, crazy ass movie though.

I agree that some of the India Jones movies where dull. IŽd go with the last one thus far with Sean Connery. Great film.

I thought the question was GOOD action movie. Lets be serious:
Rambo - good actor NOT
Pearl Harbour - too long to be an action movie
LOTR - see above. Good movies but not action movies
Rush Hour - yeah Jackie Chan is pretty good
The Mummy - what crap
The Mummy 2 - more crap
Bruce Lee movies - definitely good in their time.

Best one at the moment has to be Final Destination 2.

Grimlock
09-13-2003, 06:08 PM
Final destination isn't an action movie either it would be categorized as a thriller or horror I am sure.

The Horror fanatic
09-14-2003, 04:01 AM
if i want action i always pick one of these

predator
commando
indiana jones and temple of doom
indiana jones and the last crusade
raiders of the lost ark(an absolute action classic)
The mummy
the mummy returns
final destination 2(an action horror flick and my 2nd fav movie ever :D )
hard boiled(a total asian action classic with chow yun fat)
a better tomorrow(chow yun fat again)
a better tomorrow 2(oh look chow yun fat at his best again)
star wars(sci fi action classic)
empire strikes back(sci fi action classic)
return of the jedi(sci fi action classic)
Live and let die(the best bond film ever)
enter the dragon(bruce lee at his best)

by the way my fav is Freddy vs jason :D an action horror flick, not just horror

Grimlock
09-14-2003, 10:00 AM
sweet, Jason is an action hero now
