, also colloquially known as karate or kung fu films, are a subgenre of action films that feature numerous martial arts combat between characters. These combats are usually the films' primary appeal and entertainment value, and often are a method of storytelling and character expression and development. Martial arts are frequently featured in training scenes and other sequences in addition to fights. Martial arts films commonly include other types of action, such as hand-to-hand combat, stuntwork, chases, and gunfights.
To celebrate one hundred years of Chinese cinema, Hong Kong Film Awards released a list of The Best 100 Chinese Motion Pictures. Among the 103 films on the list, there are 11 films from China (pre-1949), 13 films from the mainland China (post-1949), 61 films from Hong Kong, 16 films from Taiwan (post-1949), 1 Hong Kong/mainland China co-production and 1 Taiwan/Hong Kong co-production.
In 2012, LoveHKFilm.com asked its readers to vote for the best Hong Kong films ever. 166 people participated - mostly normal fans, but also some film fest personnel and producers. This was LoveHKFilm.com's final poll, following three decade polls (2000s, 1990s, 1980s).

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.
