Good movie, but NOT an action movie.

I've given up on superhero movies. This list and nico's comments via Claude are the reasons why. The best action movie I've seen in YEARS was Mad Max: Fury Road. Nothing else touches it.


You seen The Raid 2? Pretty damn close.


Okay. On the list. Do i need to have seen Raid 1?


Yes, because it's way better than number 2 :-) But it was 2011 so not really comparable to mad max.


Am I the only person on the planet who didn't like Mad Max? :)

Most certainly not. I'm not sure it would make my all-time top 20--it's not a movie I'd watch yearly (and if I had the time I would watch most of my favorites that frequently). That said, the movie wasn't made to be liked by everybody--it was made to be liked by George Romero and that is what makes it special. It will be studied by film students as the masterpiece of filmmaking it is for a very long time--probably forever.
