Well Jurassic Park or hopefully Terminator 2 wins that free lol. Nothing on the right hand side touches those two.

I don't consider Jurassic Park an action movie. But it is clearly among the best movies there.

T2 or Matrix have this on lock.

Man, I've seen all of these movies. I'm guessing it'll be T2 vs Heat for the finale.

No HK action films in that list

T2 will most likley win

Rumble in the Bronx is there, under Mid day specials rather than action comedy for some reason, but sure a lot more HK movies can get on that list. I mean, nothing at all with Jet Li or Chow Yun Fat. If the Matrix was influential, then its influences should be there as well. What about Hard Boiled? The Mission (Johnnie To, 1999) is a personal favourite as well, as good as Heat in my mind.

I am disappointed that it took 4 posts till Terminator 2 was mentioned. IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN #2

Its the Matrix


It redefined Action Cinema - 20 years later, its still being ripped off.

T2 easily. It redefined the summer blockbuster when it came out. It's influence is still felt to this day.

Ouch, Jurassic Park vs The Mummy. No matter who wins, the other deserved to make it farther than first round.

yup that was a rough one. jp is gonna kill it, but the mummy deserves more recognition than it tends to get
I didn't want to show favoritism in my overall sentiment but yeah...jp is gonna slaughter, and rightly so.
But the Mummy is awesome and one of my top favorite action adventure movies from that era.

Damn there were so many good action movies in the 90s.

T2 is the correct answer for the best action movie of the 90s though. Not sure it will win as a lot of time has passed and a lot of bad sequels have diluted the value of the franchise whereas something like Heat is left unsullied for all time. But T2 is just perfection for an action movie.

Face/Off isn't in the same league as the Matrix.

Matrix should win by a landslide
