@RadicalThrasher haven't seen Fighting Back (heard of it though) or Walking the Edge, so cheers. Walking the Ledge looks fucking awesome.
Have more, but figured that was a good starting point

That's about what I was assuming. Also yeah Regeneration is surprisingly prescient with its proto-Raid style. There's even that big tower block scene. For me the best action movies of the last 20 years are Mad Max: Fury Road, The Raid, and Universal Soldier: Day of Reckoning.I don't have a concrete definition and I'm not sure where to draw the line. In my mind Universal Soldier: Regeneration (2009) is a "modern" action movie because it's an update of an 80s classic in a more contemporary style. It's actually kind of shocking that movie came out before The Raid because it really seems like something that would've been inspired by it. I guess The Raid (2011) and John Wick (2014) are both massively influential touchstones that have come to define the "modern action movie". So I suppose the cutoff is somewhere around there.
I should definitely check out Sisu.
I dug it. A fun little by the books western. Perfect sunday flick. The little girl actress was pretty badass. And that concludes my detailed in depth review lol@TechnicalBarbarity drop your opinion once you've finished that. Looks cool.
