I'd be careful about 'doing ups' in a non classified ad forum mate. And to give you some more action titles...

The Negotiator - Samuel L Jackson and Kevin Spacey
Hard Boiled - Japanese film by John Woo. The action scene are incredible. Chow Yun Fat stars.
Con Air - brainless fun in a plane- Nicolas Cage, John Cusack and John Malkcovich.
Speed - chance are you've seen this one
Face Off - another John Woo this time American- Nicolas Cage and John Travolta. Avoid the old R2 flipper release
Battle Royale - Japanese film about 42 school children who are put on a island and jhave to kill each other to stay alive.
Air Force One - the Presidents palne is hijacked by terrorists. Harrison Ford stars.
Pearl Habour - if you can get through the lovey stuff the action scene are some of the best ever.
Arnie Films - Most of them

Thats all I can think of:D

Surely you mean Hong Kong :).

You could also add Kiss of the Dragon to that.

"Up" is a post that is used a lot in the classifieds to bring the thread to the top of page 1.

tx to thomasd and psycrow for there feedback, but surely there must be more films out there.

[sampath]

A couple more:

The Killer (a must see)
Romeo Must Die
Drive
M:I-2
Purple Storm

A couple of controversial ones there I'm sure :D but all were pretty entertaining as far as I'm concerned

Rush Hour 1 + 2 - quality action flicks with Jackie Chan nad Chris Tucker

Aliens - arguably the best sequal ever?

Jurassic Park trilogy - for all out action, pick up JP 3 which is more action packed than the first two

Armageddon - total action flick from Michael Bay

Predator - great Arnie movie from the 80s

Die Hard Trilogy - The R1 UE boxset is IMO the best DVD movie collection boxset yet for sheer quality

Along with all the other suggestions:

Enemy of the State - Swordfish meets The Matrix is this high-tech thriller

X Men - A more "child-friendly" version of Blade from the director of The Usual Suspects

Broken Arrow - From John Woo and the writer of Speed, action-packed - if plot-lite

Rush Hour 1/2 - Entertaining action-comedy with Jackie Chan and Cris Tucker


PS Check out the crappy descriptions I made up!:D :( :o

Have to second the rock and Armageddon. Both great fun and loads of action!

Forgot to mention DRIVE in my original reply.

Not A-list Hollywood big-budget type material, but definitely a fun movie (considering the titles listed in the header), and an excellent R2 DVD.

Edit: in my original "reply", not "post".
