The 21 Best Action Movies That Still Hold Up Today

Philip Pirrello has compiled a list of The 21 Best Action Movies That Still Hold Up Today.  Pirello’s list contains the movies you’d expect, although we probably all would disagree on the order.

For the record, my top three films from the list would be (in alphabetical order):

  1. Cliffhanger
  2. Point Break
  3. Terminator 2

Several actors made two appearances on the list: Tommy Lee Jones, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Will Smith, Wesley Snipes and Sly Stallone.  Only two actors had three appearances and they may surprise you (they did me): Keanu Reeves and Harrison Ford!
