    I always thought True Lies was the greatest action film of all time. Great story, funny, and the action is great!

    Some of my all-time favorites:

    Leathal Weapon Series
    Die Hard Series (ICB: You didn't like Die Hard 4?! I loved it!)
    Rambo Series
    Terminator 2
    Bloodsport
    Legend of Drunken Master, Wheels on Meals (Jackie Chan Movies)
    Indiana Jones 1, 2, 3. Part 4 sucked ass! The ending KILLED it for me!
    The Big Hit (Many don't like this, but I love this movie)
    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 1, 2 (Sorry, some childhood nostalgia for me. Plus it was sick how they pulled off those fight scenes with those costumes)

    LMAO!!! Because I didn't finish scrolling down after seeing your first post, so I repped you saying the same thing, and then I seen this post.

    I love Jackie Chan movies - Who Am I, Rumble in the Bronx, First Stike, Mr Nice Guy, the list goes on and on.

    The older Jackie Chan films like Police Story 1 and 2, Project A and Wheels on Meals had some of the best fight scenes EVER, the playground scene in Police Story 2 is one of my favourites also the castle fight scenes in Wheels on Meals, amazing work!

    Kel, I read in the Jackie Chan autobiography (yup, I was that big of a fan!). He said him and Benny Urquidez, the guy he fought at the end of Wheels on Meals and Dragons Forever, had so much chemistry together fight-wise that some of the fights weren't completely choreographed. The director just let them go and they just pulled their punches.

    Have you seen the factory scene in Dragons Forever? Jackie Chan and Yuen Biao just rocking everyone in their way! Classic!

    No subtitles but you don't need to know what the hell they're saying anyway.

    The playground scene in Police Story 2 is sick! I like the fight in the mall in Police Story 1. So violent!

    The 3 bourne films have to be up there.

    Blood Diamond is also worth a mention.

    Nice one, I saw Dragons Forever years ago great fight scenes also. I had read about that Benny fella in magazine articles by Chan, I bet he is one tough bastard.

    The first Transporter was great.

    2 & 3 sucked.

    The one thing I hated about all the Transporter movies though, is that his love interests, where all played by women that can't act for $hit.


    I loved Jet Li's Hero. I can't believe I forgot that. The cinematography was fanastic. I first watched it straight, and then another time I watched it high, man that took it to whole new level.
