The 40 Best Action Movies of All Time, Ranked by Collider

"Few genres benefit from the art form of film as much as the action genre does. Yet while there might be some good action-heavy books out there, there's an argument to be made that action just hits harder when it's visual, audible, and presented on the big screen. Let's be honest: the best action movies are often better - or at least more entertaining - than the best movies from any other genre. Good action movies are worth celebrating, and that's what the following list of titles aims to do: show the action genre at its very best. Adrenaline junkies and action fans should make it a priority to check out all the following, as they comprise what can be definitively declared the best action movies of all time. With a mix of classics and newer films, the following is an attempt to rank some of the greatest action-packed movies of all time, ith all being essential viewing for fans of the action genre." - collider.com
