best action films

[matrixman]

I'm a total geek for Blade Runner, but it doesn't fit my idea of what an action film is.
I'd certainly bump it for True Lies or a number of other films.

Return of the King is not an "action" movie in my mind either.

But it's nice to see at least one of the Bourne films up there. Also bravo for Kill Bill!

I still love Raiders, but I would no longer place it at the very top.

Yeah, I watched Raiders recently and it wasn't nearly as good as I remembered it...still good, but not great anymore.

Where was "Escape from New York"? Or "Chronicles of Riddick?" Or the new "Star Trek"? That was non-stop action!

Apocalypse Now? Platoon? Saving Ryan's Privates? I love a good war film! Yes, even "Pearl Harbour" (up to the part of the bombing - after that it sucked green monkey dicks)

Nemesis (1992) Oliver Gruner, great action flick.
