The greatest action movies of all time starring some of the best action stars to have ever fought on screen. The best action movies tend to be the ones where we get a little substance to go along with the shooting; a little banter along with the battles. This list has some of the most awesome action films of all time.

This list of greatest action movies ever has a mix of one man renegades (Die Hard), extraterrestrial thrills (Alien), and science fiction dreams brought to reality on the big screen (Terminator, Jurassic Park).

You’ll even find some great comedic performances among the gun fights, smack talking, and explosions. Heck, you could probably fill a New Jersey size dump with all the stuff that gets blown up in these action films.

The list covers a broad time range as well with nearly as many classic action movies making the list as newer, big budget CGI action-fest. This is a fan ranked list compiled from Reddit and Ranker, not based from IMDB. Without further adieu these are the greatest action films:

• Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark
• Die Hard
• Terminator 2: Judgement Day
• The Matrix
• The Terminator
• The Dark Knight
• Aliens
• Predator
• Lethal Weapon

Lots of Westerns in there so I think I can get away with nominating The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly. "If you have to shoot, shoot, don' talk."

Enter the Dragon, On Her Majesty's Secret Service (I love Diana Rigg), Yojimbo, both John Wick movies, all on my Honorable Mention list.
