Top 10 Action Flicks

I love action movies. These past few day I've must of watched 8 of them. Here's a list of my favorite action movies:

  1. Aliens- This is the second movie and it was done by James Cameron. This is my all time fave'. It has horror, suspense and balls to the wall action. Most try to imitate this formula but fall short.
  2. Saving Private Ryan- I know this isn't really an action movie but the scenes are really intense. This movie always keeps me on edge even though I've seen it like 20 times. The characters make this flick so good.
  3. Empire Strikes Back -The second movie in the Star Wars triology. How fucked is this movie? Luke finds out his Dad is Darth Vader, Han Solo gets all jacked, dam this one was dark and the action is intense. The fight scene between Vader and Luke is one of the best.
  4. Heat- Dude, that bank robbery scene…have you seen it? Oh shit, talk about over the top
  5. Terminator- That scene in the police station is recockulous.
  6. Children of Men- This is a new flick and at first I didn't want to see it. The story seemed lame. Holy shit I was wrong. The scene in the car (which some film nerds talk highly about due to the camera angles) will have you gripping your seat. The whole movie had me so tense. Crazy action scenes in the end.
  7. Dusk Till Dawn- I rented this movie a long time ago and I had no idea it was about vampires. It's like 2 movies in 1. It's a fun ride and Salma Hayek is half naked in the flick.
  8. Kill Bill Vol.1- I had a hard time thinking of which kung fu flick I liked the best. I could do a separate list for these films. I know some kung fu snobs will hate this flick but this movie is brutal and really fast paced.
  9. First Blood- This movie had every kid buying a survival knife with a compass on the handle. Such a good flick. The scene that blew my mind was where he stitched himself up. Holy fuck that is some real man shit right there.
  10. Die Hard- Tons of one liners in this flick.
