I still have to see the John Wick movies. Not sure I would consider The Departed an action movie, though. It has it's moments, but I'd consider it much more a drama than action. An AMAZING film, though.
definitely get on that. the first is on that level where if it's on, you almost don't have a choice but to watch it.
Likely the a strong correlation between the age of the beholder and the movie selection.... Can movies where you have no clue what will happen next be considered 'Action'? Some Guy Ritchie movie à la Lock Stock and 2 smoking barrels....
Bad ass flick right there. The second one was pretty good as well. Tears of the Sun, but I probably wouldn't put that in the "All time" category.
I almost said Raiders of the Lost Ark as my answer. I liked Crusade, but it had all be done before at that point. Raiders was something new, at the time. Those movies still have the best punching sound effects. Baseball bat on leather.
The finale on the bridge for that film was epic. The entire movie was good, except for not knowing what they were saying half the time...
Agree on Heat and Aliens. T2 also. Maybe Saving Private Ryan. Last of the Mohigans is a personal fav also.
