In case you don’t know…I’m a big action movie buff. Always have been since the age of 4 when my parents took me to the theater to watch Star Wars.
They told me that I didn’t really understand what was going on but I was jumping up and down on the seat as it was my first movie theater experience.
Just the other day I was able to get my hands on the bluray version of Star Wars to watch with my son and I was surprised how modern it looked.
While it doesn’t have all the fancy CG found in movies today, I found it as amazing now as I did then.
So today, I thought I’d share with you my list of the best action movies ever.
- Gladiator
- Armageddon
- Transformers
- Aliens
- Die Hard
- Top Gun
- Speed
- The Abyss
- Blade
- Star Wars IV, V & VI
- Untouchables
- Total Recall
- The Bourne Ultimatum
- Fist of Legend
- Terminator 1 & 2
- True Lies
- Avatar
- The Matrix 1 & 2
- Lethal Weapon 1 & 2
- The Killer
- Predator
- Spiderman
- The Rock
- Iron Man
- Taken
- Inception
- The Dark Knight
- The Italian Job
- Braveheart

I want to keep going but I think those will keep you busy.

We both enjoy the same movies, I also like Fearless, Crank, The Transporter 2, Collateral, Ip Man, House of Flying Daggers, Hero, Apocalypto, Curse of the Golden Flower, The Replacement Killers
Just got Ip Man the other day…will have to check it out…Be sure to check out Fist of Legend by Jet Li if you haven’t…that is truly an amazing movie and by far his best (in my opinion)
I’d like to add Payback and No Country For Old Men. Thanks for the list.
actually never see No Country For Old Men, will have to put that on my list. Good choice with Payback.
