Man on Fire It is worth seeing and the film is good, its just not the film a lot of people seem to be brainwashed into thinking it is

Radha Mitchell is tasty in it

I really enjoyed "Man on Fire" and personally, I thought it was above average. But I wouldn't call it an action film. More of a crime drama really.

There's enough car chases in it to make it a top action film. 8)

Ronin is an action film, it was advertised as an action film and the end product is action, not sure what film you watched as maybe a quater of the running time is action.

Sure. All I remember are the car chases. Didn't care for the rest.

This is in no order, except no. 1!

1) Terminator 2: Judgment Day - this is my all-time favourite action film!

2) The Rock

3) Swordfish

4) Aliens

5) Blade

6) Con Air

7) Die Hard

8 ) Minority Report

9) The Matrix

10) RoboCop

11) X2 (aka X-Men 2)

12) 007: The Spy Who Loved Me

13) Predator

14) Spider-Man

15) Indiana Jones

16) The Mummy

17) Pirates of the Caribbean

18 ) True Lies

19) Total Recall

20) The Fifth Element

Okay, so because it had to be 20... I kinda had to think hard and put films I'm not that into, and also ones that aren't really action films - so damn you all!

You didn't pick WHICH Indiana Jones film? 8)

gasteropod · Post by **gasteropod** » 10 Dec 2005, 19:59

Probably the first one... I missed Total Recall off my list stupidly as well!

You always forget at least one film when you do lists like these.

But I'm happy with my choices. 8)
