Default Favorite Action Movie

I figured the singular movie recommendation thread worked out well.

So what's the one action movie you love.
Now KG pointed out that action is such a weird genre so define it how you want, but let's try for some explosions in it.

I have a soft spot in my heart for Predator.

Fantastic.

You know what, I'm not sure. I haven't really watched too many action movies that were memorable enough for me to even remember what ones I have and have not seen.

Hmm you are either watching all the wrong ones.
Or all the right ones.

Give some examples of action movies you have seen.

Die Hard or Die Hard with a Vengeance.

I actually enjoyed all the Die Hard movies (and have the collection on Blu-ray) but those are the ones that do it for me.
