[MAD]

Raiders of the Lost Ark

I excluded war, western, and intergalactic/sci-fi. If we include those, my list gets much longer....

Some more "pure" action movies I like that's not been listed:

Lethal Weapon (all of them)
Con Air
Shooter
Unleashed
Fast and Furious (most of them)
Dirty Harry
Jack Reacher
Jaws

Can't believe I forgot Jaws.

 Shooter is good too.

 

[Brave Volunteer]

yes!

Tombstone

I started to list Tombstone but again, I wasn't sure if it's technically categorized as an action film or just a western.

Another action film that I love is Nighthawks with Stallone, Billy Dee Williams, and Rutger Hauer.

This is sort of the scenario I found myself in with Aliens. There's a crapton of "action" but is it really an "action movie"? There's definitely some shiz going on in Jaws but is it an action movie? It's hard to pin down the criteria.

If I were to add to my previous post I'd certainly have included The Matrix and John Wick.
