I found fury road to just be a bit stupid, tbh. Guitars spurting out flames and stuff, was like an 80s rock video.
T2 is probably the ultimate, for me. Great story, great action, pretty much non stop.

Terminator 2 is so overrated. The original Terminator film is much better. On the subject of Arnie, Predator is a highly underrated film.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Don't agree on either points. T2 I saw fairly recently. It expands on the original and does more with it. I think it's comfortably a sequel that betters its predecessor.
I wouldn't say Predator is underrated either, judging by the number of people on here putting it in their best lists. It was underrated by critics at the time though.

I was more of a fan of 'get in the bin 2, this time we wheelie mean it' if I'm honest.
Kill Bill, The Raid, Terminator, Alien, all of Nolans Batman films, Blade, No Country for Old Men (if that can squeeze into the category).
The Matrix, gets worse with each watch for me. You have to consider when it was made though, what a film in it's day.

I think Die Hard with a Vengeance is underrated…
Has a great tag line too..
Fury Road, I put as the greatest action film of the 2K10’s. It’s up there as an overall fav, but It doesn’t crack my Top 5.

I don't really consider No Country an action movie but it does have great action in it. If it was I'd put it up there. One of my favourites from this century.
Also I don't really get the love for The Running Man. Very cheesy and dated. Not even a top 5 Arnie film.

Agreed… it’s very boring to watch, so if you’re gonna film that way, which is ‘just get the job done on time on budget’ type of shoot, then at the very least you gotta have yer actors bring something to it, to lift it up…

Good movies but pretty overrated, especially TDK.
Some of the fighting scenes are not great either. Like when one of the big thugs gets a slight beating off Catwoman and he is lying incapacitated on the ground for 5 minutes while she talks to Bruce. It's embarrassing.
Problem with die hard 3 is it's bit really a "die hard film". But it is good though.

It's very close to being as good as the original. Like you say it changed the dynamic a little bit and this worked. The best sequels are always the ones that try to do something different and don't just retread the same path.
Only thing is the ending wasn't particularly climactic. I think I prefer the alternate ending where he meets Irons in a bar and plays Simon Says.

The joker film was very good but not as action packed as the Bane one.
For pure action (spectacle, explosions, etc) I don't think anything will ever top Terminator I & II or Jurassic Park first watch as a young man on the big screen with the sound systems you didn't have at home.
But that has been ages ago, and if I look at the IMDB top 50 action list of the past 5 years only Dune and RRR were impressive to me.
I do rate Wick 4, The Raid etc, but I see them more as martial arts flicks and seek them out mainly for the man to man (or woman) battles and real/practical stunts. Probably my all time favorites are Flash Point and SPL (Kill Zone), both starring Donnie Yen. The former has a few memorable 'realistic' MMA style fight scenes, while the latter has one of the greatest knife / weapon fight in cinema ever.
