This is a loosely ranked list of all the films I've seen that are tagged with the "Action" genre. I'm a huge fan of the genre, enjoying it more than any other, and I wanted a way to document what I like and don't in the genre. Hence this list.
When I rate films, I rate based on my overall enjoyment of them, and not as examples of any particular genre. So the top portion of my list is a ranking of every film I've rated at least 8/10, but ranked specifically as Action movies. So a film like Harakiri (1962), which I find to be a flawless film, doesn't rise to the top, as it's not a great "Action Film" so it gets ranked lower.
After the ranked portion, I've grouped all subsequent ratings alphabetically. So all the films I rated 7/10 are grouped alphabetically, followed by the 6/10 rated films, and so on.

As long as there are people seeking to avenge the death of their masters and vigilante heroes who have just had enough, revenge will always be there. Sorry to all you American movie goers, but Asian films know their violence. They know their vengenace. They know how to put you on the edge of your seat and then kick your ass to the back of the theater. Below are the top 10 unrelenting, violent, extreme, best of the best Asian revenge films of all time."
