Top 5 Action Movies

The Matrix is a 1999 science fiction action film written and directed by Larry and Andy Wachowski and starring Keanu Reeves, Laurence Fishburne, Carrie-Anne Moss, Joe Pantoliano, and Hugo Weaving.

It redefined 'action in movies' to say the least.

Terminator 2: Judgment Day, commonly abbreviated as T2, is a 1991 action / science fiction film directed, co-written and co-produced by James Cameron. It stars Arnold Schwarzenegger, Linda Hamilton, Edward Furlong and Robert Patrick.

One of the most influential and breath-taking action movies.

The Bourne Ultimatum is the third Jason Bourne novel written by Robert Ludlum and a sequel to The Bourne Supremacy (1986). The Bourne Ultimatum was adapted into a film of the same name starring Matt Damon.

It's cool, tht's what it is and a perfect action-packed story-line doesn't hurt! And, did I mention Matt Damon in an almost perfect spy role?

Drunken Master is a 1978 Hong Kong martial arts-action-comedy film directed by Yuen Woo-ping, and starring Jackie Chan, Yuen Siu Tien (aka Simon Yuen), and Hwang Jang-Lee.

You gotta see it to believe it and that's why it's in the list. Not for the story, not for the acting, not for anything else but for the amazing 'drunken' action. Not a surprise that it's Chan's most successful movie at HK Box-Office till date.

Die Hard is an Academy Award nominated 1988 American action film. It was written by Jeb Stuart and Steven E. de Souza, stars Bruce Willis, Bonnie Bedelia, Alan Rickman, Paul Gleason, Reginald VelJohnson and William Atherton, and was directed by John McTiernan.

Yeah! It's the original 'action-hero in a sticky situation' movie - the one where the guy defies all odds and wins the situation for his people single-handedly. It's tough not to have seen it!
