Action Movie Recommendations

[Shel_B]

I'd like some recommendations for good action movies that can be enjoyed on Netflix, Amazon Prime, or Paramount+. I've recently enjoyed The Pacific, Reacher, Primeval, and Woman of the Dead. Whatcha got?

The Electric State, Netflix? Maybe not exactly action but does have action in it. Top Gun 2?

Ford vs Ferrari is one of my favourites and worth a re-watch if you haven’t seen it in a while.

We Were Soldiers or The Siege of Firebase Gloria.

The Covenant, Excellent starring Jake Gyllenhaal.

Not a movie and maybe hard to follow (although deviates from books). Wheel of Time series on Amazon. Season three has lots of action.

Is Fauda still on Netflix? Warning - might be controversial dependent on your feelings on the middle east. They likely won't make any more episodes for obvious reasons.

Thanks for the suggestions.

We Were Soldiers or The Siege of Firebase Gloria.

I'll look into those ... they're new and unknown to me, although We Were Soldiers has a familiar ring.

I'd not have considered it an action movie, but it does qualify in some respects. I've seen it and don't care to again. Thanks for the suggestion, though.

Seems that has just become code words for violence …
If that’s not your thing - might be watching old stuff on 15 hour flights.

I'll take a look at my next visit to the site. Thanks.

If you want a LONG read, check the books out........sometimes repetitious and tests your memory, but good story.

Shooter, with Mark Wahlberg.

I think the best action movies were in the 80-s and early 90-s.

Dredd.
Dredd, Dredd Dredd Dredd.

Then The Raid (to check what Dredd was inspired from), then Mile 22 because The Raid's Iko Uwais and a stone cold (stone cold - like "The Departed" level stone cold) Marky Mark are in it, then Dredd again.

DISCLAIMER: After Mile 22, an Iko Uwais rabbit hole is expected. This will, unfortunately, inevitably, cause a slip towards Wu Assassins.

Instead of slipping into said hole, re-watching The Raid and Mile 22 is a good system cleanse.

Then, you can re-rewatch Dredd again, while hoping for a sequel of Mile 22 which will never come because it bombed.

And, of course, Steel Rain every Christmas.
