Most real men would rather watch an action movie than an episode of Oprah.  In short, here are my top five action movies of all time! 

1.  John Rambo – This movie is a swash-bucket full of gratuitous violence, political undertones and, of course, a fitting end to a successful movie franchise.  A film that makes no excuses for its lack of political correctness.  For those left-wing nut huggers who despised the film, the extreme scenes of brutality is actually happening in Burma, the location of movie.  Check out the following clip and you’ll know what I mean.

2.  First Blood – A raw look into the mind of a forgotten hero.  The injustices and mistrials a person must face in order to assimilate back into society.  First Blood is a well written introduction to a franchise that’s over 20 years old!

3.  Die Hard 1 – A cinematic experience that combines humour and sophisticated action sequences.  And who can’t forget the infamous line blurted out by Bruce Willis. 

Ahh… “YippeeYippee Ki Yay Mother F*****”.

4.  Commando 1  – I have only two words to describe this movie, “cheese” and “wine”.  Sure, the plot was extremely cheesy.  In addition, the acting almost tasted like a bottle of stale wine but in the end, Commando showcased a future Governor of California who lacked any real acting skills.  Nevertheless, he made up for his funny accent by shooting up bad guys into smithereens.

5.  Missing in Action 1 – Can you believe that Chuck Norris is almost 70?  The former Karate World Champion tends to plays characters with a moral center, and despite having dangerous martial arts skills, these characters would rather find a better solution than fighting (yeah right!).  Overall, Missing in Action proves that a little bit of M60 loving can solve a lot of the problems in this world. ;)
