Votes: 204,058 | Gross: $26.59M

Respect to an director who can kill off an actor like De Niro and Rodriguez did it justice and hats off for the casting. Love his indie directing style and of course the accompanying music is always sexy as hell. Film delivers all the way to the end for a fun, kill em all movie.

Votes: 311,091 | Gross: $155.06M

An all round action movie. Good start and a character departs early which is unusual, clever writing. Easy watch.

51 Metascore

A retired CIA agent travels across Europe and relies on his old skills to save his estranged daughter, who has been kidnapped while on a trip to Paris.

Director: Pierre Morel | Stars: Liam Neeson, Maggie Grace, Famke Janssen, Leland Orser

Votes: 634,314 | Gross: $145.00M

This was different because he really didn't give a dam whom he hurt, by any means necessary, and he wasn't quiet or shy about it. The action was different also, even though it looked professional there was a clumsiness about it that made it seem more real. Even though she had a very small role, I liked Valances' performance, seemed more natural than when she was in soaps. Funny as I'm watching this again, I recently watched the Family Guy take on this so remembered a lot. Lol.

6. Fast Five (2011)

PG-13 | 130 min | Action, Crime, Thriller

66 Metascore

Director: Justin Lin | Stars: Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Dwayne Johnson, Jordana Brewster

Votes: 407,034 | Gross: $209.84M

Really was Fast and Furious and was highly entertaining, if you ignore the cops (he joined them so quickly). Jokes as usual, Gibson cracks me up! Nice end credits and what a cookie to leave us on.

7. Smokin' Aces (2006)

R | 108 min | Action, Comedy, Crime

45 Metascore

When a Las Vegas performer-turned-snitch named Buddy Israel decides to turn state's evidence and testify against the mob, it seems that a whole lot of people would like to make sure he's no longer breathing.

Director: Joe Carnahan | Stars: Jeremy Piven, Ryan Reynolds, Ray Liotta, Joseph Ruskin

Votes: 152,045 | Gross: $35.66M

It's another take on S.W.A.T. but in a different perspective and I rather enjoyed it. Obviously not taking it seriously it's enjoyable. Albeit some rather strange characters involving the new Kirk, also a semi reunion for some Lost members. It's okay, just for funs!

8. Salt (2010)

PG-13 | 100 min | Action, Thriller

65 Metascore

A CIA agent goes on the run after a defector accuses her of being a Russian spy.

Director: Phillip Noyce | Stars: Angelina Jolie, Liev Schreiber, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Daniel Olbrychski

Votes: 330,041 | Gross: $118.31M

Even I know that you don't turn your back away from the enemy! Repeated operative film, only difference is 30 minutes shorter and some tweaks, had a quality of 24 also. I will say because it was a Russian crossover it did give it more oomph and the music while she was taking them out was awesome. You know what? I thought it was all right, it was a pleasant surprise.

9. The Karate Kid (2010)

PG | 140 min | Action, Drama, Family

61 Metascore

Work causes a single mother to move to China with her young son; in his new home, the boy embraces kung fu, taught to him by a master.

Director: Harald Zwart | Stars: Jackie Chan, Jaden Smith, Taraji P. Henson, Wenwen Han

Votes: 205,434 | Gross: $176.59M

I'm old skool so always expect the worse which I think is a good thing cause I really enjoyed this film. I've become a Jaden fan. He is a great actor and you can see his fathers traits so badly in this particular film. Yeh, I'd watch it again.

10. The Mechanic (2011)

R | 93 min | Action, Crime, Thriller

49 Metascore

An elite hitman teaches his trade to an apprentice who has a connection to one of his previous victims.

Director: Simon West | Stars: Jason Statham, Ben Foster, Donald Sutherland, Tony Goldwyn

Votes: 171,599 | Gross: $29.12M

Statham is brilliant in whatever he does. Same thing but has an apprentice for a change who learnt quickly albeit his mistakes. This film was missing his trademark fight scenes although the shoot outs were executed beautifully, quick and stylish.

11. Haywire (2011)

R | 93 min | Action, Drama, Thriller

67 Metascore

A black ops super soldier seeks payback after she is betrayed and set up during a mission.

Director: Steven Soderbergh | Stars: Gina Carano, Ewan McGregor, Michael Fassbender, Michael Angarano

Votes: 89,758 | Gross: $18.94M

All star cast. The music kept the pace going, I thought when there wasn't any the feel felt dry and airy. It's like all the others of it's kind but done in a stylish way the music playing a big part. Nice end, passable.

12. Kick-Ass 2 (2013)

R | 103 min | Action, Comedy, Crime

41 Metascore

Following Kick-Ass' heroics, other citizens are inspired to become masked crusaders, but Red Mist leads his own group of evil super-villains to get revenge, kill Kick-Ass, and destroy everything he stands for.

Director: Jeff Wadlow | Stars: Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Chloë Grace Moretz, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Jim Carrey

Votes: 288,325 | Gross: $28.80M

I don't mind her personality changing but they took the wrong direction and it made for 2 scenes that didn't match. I thought the film quite messy with a highly undesirable scene. Nicely surprised to see British Doctor Who actor, Daniel Kaluuya. It did get silly in the middle but made up for it towards the end.

13. Crank: High Voltage (2009)

R | 96 min | Action, Crime, Thriller

41 Metascore

Chelios faces a Chinese mobster who has stolen his nearly indestructible heart and replaced it with a battery-powered ticker which requires regular jolts of electricity to keep working.

Votes: 158,925 | Gross: $13.63M

Nice silicone shot and great Godzilla scene. Just a fun filled movie not to be taken too seriously.

14. Colombiana (2011)

PG-13 | 108 min | Action, Drama, Thriller

45 Metascore

A young girl in Bogotá witnesses her parents' murder and grows up to be a stone-cold assassin.

Director: Olivier Megaton | Stars: Zoe Saldana, Michael Vartan, Callum Blue, Jordi Mollà

Votes: 107,623 | Gross: $36.67M

A Besson joint with Saldana in the main role, that interested me. The little girl was an amazing runner and her facial expressions were very cool. After that, it was the usual only difference was that she actually was bad opposed to revenge only.

15. Plunkett & Macleane (1999)

R | 99 min | Action, Adventure, Comedy

44 Metascore

Two robbers are persecuted by the law, whose servants are not much better and even worse.

Director: Jake Scott | Stars: Robert Carlyle, Jonny Lee Miller, Iain Robertson, Ken Stott

Votes: 10,448 | Gross: $0.47M

Stylish in a cool, modern way for that era. There aren't really any films like this and the fact that it was an English cast gave it that authentic feel. Casting was great and performances from actors of nowadays was a great surprise, they used that character in their own show - naughty. Fun watch and a surprising turn although not a good twist.

16. Red State (2011)

R | 88 min | Action, Crime, Horror

50 Metascore

Set in Middle America, a group of teens receive an online invitation for sex, though they soon encounter fundamentalists with a much more sinister agenda.

Director: Kevin Smith | Stars: Michael Parks, Melissa Leo, John Goodman, Michael Angarano

Votes: 67,175 | Gross: $1.10M

Mixed feeling about the scenes leading to the abduction. At the church they kept me guessing but explained it with the execution which was done well. The direction they then took was unexpected but welcomed, it became a really good storyline not unfamiliar to real life events, in my opinion. I liked it as I didn't ever see anything coming and the preacher was very creepily convincing.

17. Super (I) (2010)

R | 96 min | Action, Comedy, Crime

50 Metascore

After his wife falls under the influence of a drug dealer, an everyday guy transforms himself into Crimson Bolt, a superhero with the best intentions, but lacking in heroic skills.

Director: James Gunn | Stars: Rainn Wilson, Elliot Page, Liv Tyler, Kevin Bacon

Votes: 83,689 | Gross: $0.32M

Absolutely fantastic opening credits, may be the best I've seen. Didn't know what to expect but was surprised by this film. It delivers in an unexpected way stating that it's the heroes are more *beep* than the criminals, quite poetic. I'm still unsure as to whether or not I think this film was any good as it started quite slow, but as the plot thickened so did my curiosity. It's one of those films I would watch again but would ask others to watch and discuss to fully make up my mind.

18. White House Down (2013)

PG-13 | 131 min | Action, Drama, Thriller

52 Metascore

While on a tour of the White House with his young daughter, a Capitol policeman springs into action to save his child and protect the president from a heavily armed group of paramilitary invaders.

Director: Roland Emmerich | Stars: Channing Tatum, Jamie Foxx, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Jason Clarke

Votes: 236,153 | Gross: $73.10M

The set up was so unbelievable, yeh, that could happen and it was so obvious who the ring leader was. Foxx and Tatum had good energy together which really gave the film a comedy aspect and Gyllenhaal gave a good performance. It was a Die Hard wannabe bu apart from the usual Hollywood bliss it was exciting and fun to watch

19. Man on a Ledge (2012)

PG-13 | 102 min | Action, Crime, Thriller

40 Metascore

Director: Asger Leth | Stars: Sam Worthington, Elizabeth Banks, Jamie Bell, Mandy Gonzalez

Votes: 158,526 | Gross: $18.62M

Couldn't take it seriously being kids doing a big job. Tactical using guns to save a suicidal? Really!!! Wasn't gripping until the very end.

20. Welcome to the Punch (2013)

R | 99 min | Action, Crime, Thriller

49 Metascore

Director: Eran Creevy | Stars: James McAvoy, Mark Strong, Andrea Riseborough, Peter Mullan

Votes: 34,757 | Gross: $0.01M

The division of the secs and the shoot outs were ok, other than that just your usual cop film with a twist. I liked it still!

21. Punisher: War Zone (2008)

R | 103 min | Action, Crime, Drama

30 Metascore

Director: Lexi Alexander | Stars: Ray Stevenson, Dominic West, Julie Benz, Doug Hutchison

Votes: 67,153 | Gross: $8.05M

The start music had a 3 second window that reminded me of Saw and how apt that there was a Jigsaw character included. Same kinda plot, nothing outstanding but I will say the the action was quite gore filled and the music was cool.

22. Knight and Day (2010)

PG-13 | 109 min | Action, Adventure, Comedy

46 Metascore

A young woman gets mixed up with a disgraced spy who is trying to clear his name.

Director: James Mangold | Stars: Tom Cruise, Cameron Diaz, Peter Sarsgaard, Jordi Mollà

Votes: 210,287 | Gross: $76.42M

I actually watched a Cruise film! He's not my choice at all but thought I'd make an effort. It was ok I guess, but to be honest only watched it a couple of weeks ago and I can't recollect a lot.

23. The Sweeney (2012)

R | 112 min | Action, Crime, Drama

48 Metascore

A hardened detective in the Flying Squad of London's Metropolitan police. Based on the '70s UK TV show.

Director: Nick Love | Stars: Ray Winstone, Plan B, Hayley Atwell, Steven Mackintosh

Votes: 20,415 | Gross: $0.03M

I want to like this but the jury is still out. Ben Drew is too young and not seasoned enough to give this role justice, although I have no problem with him. Loved the Heat style shoot-out but the actors playing the police weren't convincing enough during this act. I did like that the innocent bystanders got it instead of being safe, made it more authentic. The music and style was cool though. I would watch it again but was disappointed!
