Very popular and wil get many votes due to the humour and the fact it's only £3 in Asda, great story line and varied pace
Excellent blend of cultures, bad guys, tricky situations and above all comedy
Is it not more of a comedy than an action film though? I dunno... But the fight scenes were funny and also very well corriographed


I think it is more action than comedy but not by much, sugden has all kinds of strength athletes so the list can be loose abit without being bogged down on pure action movies imo, Dusk till dawn can be looked at changing.

Lets see what rick says on the matter. It can be action based but it does not have to be pure action.

One film per year only and action based.

It`s the closest thing to knock aliens of the list I think, ive not put my vote in on this as I dont know where I stand on the two tbh. ill check how many votes aliens is winning by.


Aliens 4 - Highlander 3

Starship troopers was a good laugh and a very different type of film which was comical and yet action packed
Con Air is and always will be a household favourite and I think quite rightly so... Excellent drama, sound tracks (same as broken arrow) and a overall well thought through and gripping narrative
I love everything Starship Troopers but Con Air is in my all time Top Ten Action Films


I think the thing that gives starship troopers the edge for me is that initially it seems like a gung ho 'america ho!' action fest but then turns out to be a sharp political satire mocking those very values. its a really clever film, with alot more to it than con air.

lol one word disagreements are null and void! Wink

my judgement may be tainted by the fact they did an awful job of adapting the comics, which I was a fan of.
