Are we talking just blow em up Bruckheimer/Michael Bay kinda movies, or one that actually has a story?

I honestly really enjoyed True Lies, has kick ass action, and is often hilarious at times. I also enjoyed Black Hawk Down, even though the story is true, the scenes are sick, and sounds badd ass on a surround system. Too many to name, but you can pretty much add any kung fu flick to the list, especially with jackie Chan and Jet Li.

Backdraft is also a great film for its near realistic fire sequences.

The freeway chase scene in this years Bad Boys 2 is perhaps the most realistic and obscene (in a good way) sequence filmed in a long time.

Although you could also count it as SF:
Aliens (the second one).
Lot of action, I could watch it again and again.

yes it was a great one the sequels weren't bad too
 
For me, probably Drunken Master 2, Police Story, Operation Condor, actually, there are quite a few Jackie Chan movies actually.
Outside of those, probably The Matrix, Kill Bill, Pearl Harbor, probably the last scenes of Scarface....I can't really think of too many at the moment.:confused:

Well there are many of them, but I would say one of them would be "HARDBOILED" with Chow-Yun Fat and Directed by John Woo.

i agree
 
the killer and hardboiled are john woo's best in my opinion....defo

whats the last good action filn you saw...i.e recently made film....because it seems like its been a while since a good one was made......T3 was ok...just not a patch on the others, the story was short but was stretched out to make a two hour movie when in the first two that story would of been covered within the first 30 mins of the film.....so i wouldnt include that.

Badboys 2 was also good...but way way way way to long....i got a little bored toward the end....still good movie tho...not a patch on the first....cant think of anymore.....seems yonks ago a proper killer action film came out

(yawn to anyone who sez the matrix i want films other then that techno geek garbage)
