"Best action movie?"

What your favourite action movie?

I'm hopeing that the 'Godzilla' review I did on Saturday has a chance of winning. I should find out if I have won for the first time today!

By the time i win Filmaday, i'll be looking to get Star Wars: Episode 3, or possibly the Matrix 3. Which one i wonder....

Yea Face/Off was great, but I have only seen it once, I'm considering getting it if I ever win a filmaday.

Face/Off - that film is pure over-exaggerated style. Just how i like it. John(two-gun)Woo has to be one of my favourite action film directors (i'd recommend Hard Boiled if you haven't seen it)

It has to be Akira. The action scenes are foggin ingenious. Like the bit when Tetsuo misses Kaneda on his bike and smashes into the ground, lifting him up on a huge slab, Kaneda drives towards him, shoots at Tetsuo, Tetsuo turns around as Kaneda drives up the slab again and blasts all the concrete away from underneath him (cool touch; the wires growing over Tetsuo's face when he does his OTT scream)

True, it is a great classic, I'm not sure which is better 'Die Hard 1' or 'Die Hard With Avengance'?

Oh in fact, yeah. It's a close call between Die Hard and Point Break.

I think I'd have to go with Point Break as I have seen Die Hard so many more times and know it all by heart. Well, I know Point Break by heart too but still...

Die Hard 1

It's a classic.

Point Preak

My choice is "The Rock"!
