Was S.W.A.T. good? I heard it was AWFUL.

I liked it. Some didn't.

It was non-stop action through and through.

I thought it was decent...nothing amazing, but a good enough way to kill an hour and a half. Really straight-forward plot, and action packed from beginning to end. Worth renting.


Now, I personally dont count westerns as action movies. If I did, my list would be alot different:


1. The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly [1966]
2. Robocop [1987]
3. A Fistful of Dollars [1964]
4. X-Men [2000]
5. Once Upon a Time in the West [1968]
6. Assault on Precinct 13 [1976]
7. The Shooting [1967]
8. The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen [2003]
9. Spiderman [2002]
10. Hang 'em High [1968]

The 1989 Batman was hardly an action movie IMO... It was more crime drama... Very little fighting.

Yah, but you could say that for Reservoir Dogs, which was on your list.

Touche.

Reservoir had more than batman!

Or at least 50X the deaths, haha. It was more action than drama IMO.

Well, I disagree. I think RD was as much drama as Batman. Most of the main plot took place inside a single room. I'd DEFINATELY consider it a "crime drama".

Meh, whatever, the last scenes are still amazing.
