Kingsman
>>83139071

Dredd 2012. No discussion about it, the science is settled.

It definitely had great chemistry in the group.

I honestly think that Raid 2 was literally shit, way over the top and it tried too hard to be "le serious big deep movie".
Raid 1 is absolute /kino/. Perfectly not pretentious, no bullshit, just action.
I dunno what it is but newer action movies don't feel right, sure they are sometimes pretty good movies but they can't offer the cheesy purity of peak 80s action.

This or The Raid

Oh and forgot to mention Crank 2
>>83141307
Raid was straight to the point. Raid 2 tried to be this operatic gangster movie except the writing couldn't carry it, it was all cliches. It's great when Evans gets back to what he's good at for the final hour or so. But a Raid movie should never have been 2.5 hours. Pretentious as hell.
>>83141307
Entirely this.
Time and Tide is
Apocalypto
The Matrix is still the most culturally relevant action movie of the last 20 years.
>>83139109
Raid 2 was way too overblown, 1 was great.
>>83142569
This and Exiled
Pleb filters
>>83139109
why did they went full animu with the bad guys?
>>83140302
Obviously it's the Matrix. These fuckers are high.
>>83139083
>9 seconds latee
Kek fpbp right out of the gate
Crank 2 is beautiful insanity and retardation
Plus it had some of the weirdest cameos in Chester Bennington and Maynard James Keenan
>>83141805
I would honestly just split it into their own genres. Im actually rather sick of looking for new action movies and everyone recommends the same movies from the 80s when there are alot of other good movies of late.
>>83139083

Damn, I didnt know /tv/ loved crank 2 this much. Why this one instead of the first?
Was it kino?

>>83139071
Idk but I enjoyed mel gibsons blood father a whole lot more than fury road
Pure fun kino
PROBably go with Raid 1.
I was pretty surprised when I first watched it. 2 is probably a better film and had hammer girl but I still prefer 1
Wish the Director would do more stuff.
Furry Road was great except for the last 3rd of the film
Was going to say Terminator II but then realized that it is much older than 20 years by now, as am I.
>>83143211
What was wrong with the last third of fury road?
>>83139071
Too many great ones to decide. But MMFR does come to mind. ROTK, I consider action, Oldboy is also great. First season of Daredevil had some kino fight scenes.
Fury Road was good, but it blew its load too early with the Sandstorm and the Second Chase sequence. Everything after is forgettable apart from The Bullet Farmer.
I'd honestly have to go with pic related, honestly. I can't do pure action flicks, there needs to be some substance and character going on or I can't get into it. Also I'm a sucker for Guy Ritchie's style, his frantic action sequences never seem convoluted or nauseating.

Felt it was a cool build up and then they just turn around and drop a mountain on Joe.
Just a bit of a let down .
>>83139071
Definitely not pic related.
>>83140302
which one?
>>83139071
The Raid
>>83139071
Forrest GUMP
The vietnam section was truly spine-chilling and a white-knuckle ride filled with excitement.
An unsurpassed film filled to the brim with action, simply look at the scenes where Forrest runs, from the boys on bikes at first then the guys in the truck.
Now as for the effects; again cutting edge and some of the best the past two decades had to offer, look at the lieutenant's legs! How could effects like that be topped.
Prove me wrong

Fury Road was the best of at least the last ten years, but Road Warrior is the best of all time
>>83143130
>>83143642
My initial thought was The Rock, but when I realised it's too old I was unsure, but The Mummy and either of the new Sherlock Holmes films are both solid choices.
