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.
