List Of The Best Action Movies:
NOTE: This list of action movies is not complete, definite or the best one by
any means. It
will be updated over time, as new good action movies, worth watching, are made...
If i missed to mention some good action movies please feel free to contact me and i'll add
them to the list. This list is made of titles i have watched or
read/heard are good and watchable. If you don't agree with some of movies
listed here it's perfectly ok since we can't all have the same taste :)
But again, this is not my favorite action movies list, it's sum of my favorite
movies plus movies other people recommended. All of
these action movies are sorted alphabetically and not by ratings since purpose of
this list is to give you some ideas about new movies or to remind you of some good action movies
from past you
could watch again, not to tell you which ones are the best because it depends of
everyone's personal taste.

List Of Reviewed Action Movies:
Before getting Hero Wanted i heard good
words about it, that it's about just a regular guy who
became local hero by saving a girl's life and i really
liked the idea... However after watching it myself i was
a bit disappointed... it's not completely bad, i mean
idea is there, it could be awesome crime movie without
destroying half a town with flashy explosions and
special effects, but something was missing... Maybe it
was too slow for my taste... Hero Wanted will get 2.5
out of maximum 5 from me...

For start i want to say that Hancock is
one of my favorite movies from 2008 :) the starting idea
behind movie to have superhero that's most of times in
bad mood, who has many bad habits including alcohol
problems etc was just cool... and there was no evil
counterpart that good one will fight against like in all
other superhero movies :) without anymore delays i am
giving Hancock 4 out of maximum 5...

I just finished watching of "XIII -
The Conspiracy (2008)" that lasted about 3 hours :)
that's a little too long for my taste but it was worth
time spend... it's about NSA agent that infiltrated into
a well organized group of specials who assassinated the
first ever female USA president... as i said, it's ok
action movie and it gets 4 out of maximum 5 from me :)

Eagle Eye is just another average action
movie with lots of effects, explosions, car chasing and
everything else action movies today are stuffed with...
And just like most of other actions Eagle Eye has pretty
lame plot with many already seen ideas (big and extra
smart central computer takes control over human lives,
planned conspiracy with president of USA as the ultimate
target, scaring the s*it out of people that watch movie
with terrorists from Middle East and seeing that you can
be followed anywhere anytime without knowing it,
etc...)... As i said, Eagle Eye is just average action
thriller and i am giving it 2.5 out of maximum 5...

After watching Death Race from 2008 i was
satisfied with what i got... Just like it's name says
this movie offers lots of action, races with weapons
attached to cars, preparations between races, evil
prison warden behind huge conspiracy, etc... If you like
races and action movies i think you'll love this one.
I'll rate it 3.5 out
of maximum 5 which means it's good movie, worth
watching, and that you can return to it after some time
again and find it entertaining.
