Man...tough to narrow it down to just three! Aliens and The Terminator for sure. Could name dozens for my third choice, but I think I’ll go with the original Death Race 2000. Low budget and cheezy as heck, but what a hoot!

I’m not a huge fan of action movies and am not sure if this even qualifies as an action movie, but I love The Fugitive.

I am not sure I know what an “Action Movie” is. I know there is a lot of action but what kind of action?

I always liked watching the Die Hard movies because I worked on the Fox Plaza building during its construction in the late 80s. I’ve been on every floor, on the roof and in the basement.

In no particular order (and I’ll try to think of some lesser-knowns):

The “Sharpe’s Rifles” series, starring Sean Bean.

“Falling Down”, staring Michael Douglas.

“Jeremiah Johnson” starring Robert Redford. (Not exactly sure if it qualifies as “action”.)

“They Live”, starring Rowdy Roddy Piper.
