Is Terminator 2 the best action movie ever?

[QueerMike]

I recently watched this movie and it got me to thinking. It goes non-stop action from begining to end and really defines Arnold's career. I can't think of a better Action movie right now. Is Terminator 2: Judgement Day the best Action movie ever made?

It's the best Hollywood action movie ever made.

It's the best Hollywood action movie ever made.

Okay? What's the best non-Hollywood action movie then?

 

[livrule]

Nope.

Top 5 yes, but the very best .... no.

In terms of pure action I would rate Die Hard, Aliens and Predator higher.

 

[matthooper]

Die Hard is still number one. T-2 is in my top 10. The asylum stuff in the middle drags the film down.

Die Hard never lets up.

 

[Figs]

No, but it's in top 10.

 

[Secret_Riddle]

Top 10.

I'm still researching that, but let me tell you that Asian action movies are on average superior to Hollywood ones.

As for Aliens, I don't think there is enough action in it to qualify as an action movie.

 

[Spider-Fan]

I like The Terminator slightly more than T2...plus there are a few other action movies I feel are better, but T2 I will agree is an elite action movie.

 

[Drizzle]

No, it's second after "Die Hard".

 

[Kevin Roegele]

The action movies I enjoy most are MI-2, Con Air, Die Hard with a Vengeance and Kiss of the Dragon.

 

[Erzengel]

Raiders of the Lost Ark.

You're right on Aliens. Of all the Alien movies I still think Aliens 3 is the best.

A good action movie that doesn't usually get mentioned is
'The Long Kiss Goodnight.' An absolutely underated movie starring Geena Davis and Samuel L. Jackson.

 

[odiin]

Huh, is Terminator 2 the best Die Hard ever? What a silly question to ask. Die Hard is the best Die Hard ever.

 

[PhotoJones]

Word. Die Hard is the best action movie ever.

 

[DorkyFresh]

nah....T2 is a great movie, one of my favorites, but i think even True Lies is a better action flick.

Me too-!! The Workprint Cut that is.

I'm still waiting for the DVD to arrive. Regardless of the action, it's proberbaly Samuel L. Jackson's funniest performance ever.

 

[R3M3D1]

I voted no but in the top five.

Top 5, in no order.


Die Hard
Terminator 2
Predator
Raiders of The Lost Ark
Aliens

Top 10

 

[cerealkiller182]

Def Top 5. Prolly not #1 but pretty damn close. I have to agree with almost everyone that Die hard is the best action movie ever.

 

[Warhammer]

It's definitely in my top 10, and probably in my top 5 action movies, but it's not #1. Guess what? Die Hard isn't #1, either.

Street Fighter's your number one? Really-?!
