Natty Killers was just TOO much!
My bet, though... #From Paris with Love is gonna possibly tease this list. Sh*t the trailer does, by itself!

At least SMoking Aces is here and Snatch, and Wanted, and Die Hard.

Ooooohhh...forgot 300. Definitely badass...but is it "adrenaline pumping?" It's more "visually stylish" if you ask me lol

The Dark Knight
Kill Bill Crank 2 and Shoot em Up are definitely a non stop action movie but bodytemple umm I dont think Heat would fit on this list its an action movie but not of this type if it was best crime movies it would definitely be in the top 5 next to the Departed

Paolo Sardinas
I agree with BODYTEMPLE down there. This list could use some work. I mean who could forget about the bank shootout in Heat? By far, the best action movie ever made aside from the first Die Hard.

3 years agoby @indianajonesFlag
ZanyZap
Fight Club and 300 should headline this list. They define bad-ass flicks. The Departed is also pretty kicktastic, if you ask me.

I'll pretend that comment about Commando didn't happen, Sly.
Lets face it, action and boobs is what we are talking here. Know the title is "Adrenalin Pumping Movies", but hey.... nothing gets the old adrenaline pumping like a nice big pair of puppies! lol
Also, where the f*ck is Aliens? Best action movie of all frick'n time!!!

I don't think people are watching these movies for the realism, Sly.

Basterds was too slow, plodding and intellectual to be a "bad-ass-adrenaline" flick.
Couple of good scenes is all.
These pics should be all about the ACTION!
Basterds don't belong here.

I never suggested thought provoking, but flicks like "Kill Bill" just use unrealistic violence which isn't as gnarly as the real thing. Such as people seem to think that getting shot in the head is the equivalent of a small hole and a trickle of blood. The only movie to get it right was "A History of Violence" which pretty much shows what would actually happen, rather than an impossible straight scalping with a swing of a blade.
And as for Commando, sorry, it was disqualified after the first hilarious seen of unbelievably corny proportions.
