Favorite action movie...and why

Because this is sitting here as the supreme off-topic ok and allowance, checking in to see what's your favorite action movie and why.

I don't have one, but like Equalibrium (martial arts with guns and some swords, nice!), The Matrix (c'mon, was original in its time), The Man From Nowhere (foreign, decent acting and some nice fighting scenes), The Professional (foreign, classic in nature)

My favs are:
All Bruce Lee movies, Saving Private Ryan, most Jet Li, Rambo series, early Steven Seagal, Bloodsport, Ong Bak series, some of Jason Statham movies, Almost all Clint Eastwood. These are some of my favorite action movies. The story can be lame at some (except SAving Private Ryan) but pure action, it delivers.

Nice! What about Ip Man? I forgot to mention those. Pretty good, though I won't be watching any of the others made on the subject.

The Matrix. Grundbreaking special effects at the time.
Mortal Kombat. Its just awesome.
Rocky. C'mon, it's Rocky.
Die Hard. Yippie Ki Yay.
Kill Bill. Uma Thurman.

All guilty pleasure movies that I can't pass up watching late night.

My two favourite are Dario Argento's Suspiria, an amazing atmospheric and colourful Italian Horror film and George A Romero's Dawn of the Dead, the ultimate zombie film in my opinion. Interestingly Dawn of the Dead is produced to by Dario Argento and both use the Italian progressive rock band Goblin for it's soundtracks, which are some of my favourite horror soundtracks of all time.

The 300, Troy, Hero, anything Jackie Chan, Blade: Crazy fight scenes

Starship Troopers: Love watching the humans get their asses kicked for once.

X-Men, Thor, Captain America, Iron Man, Avengers etc - super powers kicking tons of ass.

Aliens (director's cut) set the bar high a long time ago.

Limitless
Pretty much any of the new marval movies
Any James Bond movie from Dr. No to Skyfall

Seconded on the James Bond series - except I tend to think that "On Her Majesty's Secret Service" was so bad it deserves to be the one no one talks about with the actor no one acknowledges.

But for a more cult classic: Big Trouble in Little China!

Late Roger Moore Bond is hard to take seriously. "A View to a Kill" might not make the cut. Much as I like Christopher Walken as Max Zorin.

Walken reminds me...

The Deerhunter: action or drama? what qualifies as an action film?
Pulp Fiction
Reservoir Dogs
Seven Psychopaths
In Bruges?
