8 mins read EntertainmentMovie & Music Amazing! Chris Hemsworth’s Explosive Return: A Thrill Ride You Can’t Ignore September 25, 2024September 30, 2024 Omar Ali0Tagged die, hard, imdb 1. Mad Max: Fury Road 2015,IMDB Rating: 8.1, IMDB Votes: 1120023, ID: 1392190 Photo by blogspot.com, is licensed under CC BY ND 4.0 As a family-oriented movie lover, I found ‘Mad Max: Fury Road’ to be a thrilling ride. The film’s post-apocalyptic setting and intense action sequences, as described in the reviews, might be too intense for younger viewers. However, the film’s underlying themes of survival and resilience can resonate with older audiences. The performances, particularly by Tom Hardy and Charlize Theron, were commendable. Despite its dystopian despair, the film offers a glimmer of hope, much like the resilience we see in Chris Hemsworth’s character in ‘Extraction 2.’ 2. Live Free or Die Hard 2007,IMDB Rating: 7.1, IMDB Votes: 422585, ID: 0337978 Photo by draco.pe.kr, is licensed under CC BY ND 4.0 ‘Live Free or Die Hard’ marks a return of the resilient John McClane in a modern setting. The film’s focus on high-tech threats parallels the contemporary challenges faced by Chris Hemsworth’s character in ‘Extraction 2.’ Despite some plot holes, the film delivers a solid action-packed experience, with Bruce Willis’ commanding performance at its core. 3. A Good Day to Die Hard 2013,IMDB Rating: 5.2, IMDB Votes: 216058, ID: 1606378 Photo by staticflickr.com, is licensed under CC BY 2.0 A Good Day to Die Hard, the fifth installment in the Die Hard series, sees John McClane (Bruce Willis) in Russia, battling ruthless criminals to reconcile with his estranged son. The film’s action sequences are intense, but the storyline lacks depth and the father-son relationship feels forced. It’s a far cry from the original Die Hard’s charm and character development. 4. The Equalizer 2014,IMDB Rating: 7.2, IMDB Votes: 427008, ID: 0455944 Photo by wikimedia.org, is licensed under CC BY-SA 2.0 The Equalizer, starring Denzel Washington as Robert McCall, is a high-impact action thriller. McCall, a former covert operative, uses his skills to protect the helpless. Despite its formulaic story, the film is engaging, with Washington’s performance adding depth to his character. However, the film’s violence and brutality may not appeal to everyone. 5. The Equalizer 2 2018,IMDB Rating: 6.7, IMDB Votes: 202357, ID: 3766354 Photo by diggita.com, is licensed under CC BY ND 4.0 The Equalizer 2 continues the story of Robert McCall, but fails to deliver the same impact as its predecessor. The film’s plot is unfocused, and the body count becomes somewhat ridiculous. Despite Denzel Washington’s strong performance, the film is let down by its grim story and lack of memorable moments. 6. The Equalizer 3 2023,IMDB Rating: 6.8, IMDB Votes: 125912, ID: 17024450 Photo by wikimedia.org, is licensed under CC BY ND 4.0 The Equalizer 3 sees Robert McCall (Denzel Washington) in Southern Italy, fighting local crime bosses to protect his new friends. The film attempts to blend Western genre elements with action, but ends up feeling flimsy and unfocused. Despite some satisfying action scenes, the film fails to live up to the expectations set by the previous installments. 7. Man on Fire 2004,IMDB Rating: 7.7, IMDB Votes: 393769, ID: 0328107 Photo by picryl.com, is licensed under PDM 1.0 Man on Fire is a violent yet emotionally engaging film featuring Denzel Washington as John Creasy, a former CIA operative turned bodyguard. The film explores Creasy’s struggle with his past and his growing bond with the young girl he’s hired to protect. Despite its violent nature, the film offers a deep exploration of its characters, making it more than just an action movie. 8. The Transporter 2002,IMDB Rating: 6.8, IMDB Votes: 323479, ID: 0293662 Photo by tvcinemaemusica.wordpress.com, is licensed under CC BY ND 4.0/a> The Transporter is a thrilling ride that combines the luxurious European locations of James Bond with the martial arts tricks of Hong Kong cinema. Jason Statham shines as Frank Martin, a transporter who lives by his rules but ends up breaking them, leading to an engaging plot. The movie’s action sequences are sensationally good, making it a must-watch for action fans. 9. Transporter 2 2005,IMDB Rating: 6.3, IMDB Votes: 216873, ID: 0388482 Photo by upload.wikimedia.org, is licensed under CC BY ND 4.0 Transporter 2 takes the franchise to new heights with its over-the-top but entertaining action sequences. Jason Statham returns as Frank Martin, delivering another solid performance. The film’s plot is more intricate than the first, adding an extra layer of excitement. Despite its absurdity, the film’s relentless action and Statham’s charisma make it a fun watch. 10. Transporter 3 2008,IMDB Rating: 6.1, IMDB Votes: 178004, ID: 1129442 Photo by staticflickr.com, is licensed under CC BY ND 4.0 Transporter 3 sees Jason Statham reprising his role as Frank Martin in a film that’s filled with adrenaline-pumping action. Despite its implausible stunts and predictable plot, the film manages to entertain with its relentless pace and Statham’s compelling performance. However, the film’s charm lies in its ability to embrace action movie clichés without feeling stale. 11. Safe 2012,IMDB Rating: 6.5, IMDB Votes: 118722, ID: 1656190 Photo by blogspot.com, is licensed under CC BY ND 4.0 Safe is a hard-hitting action thriller that showcases Jason Statham’s combat skills. The film’s plot, involving a math prodigy and a high-stakes war, is engaging despite its predictability. While the film’s action scenes are violent and inventive, its storytelling falls into the realm of formulaic action thrillers. Nonetheless, Statham’s performance makes it a worthwhile watch. 12. Crank 2006,IMDB Rating: 6.9, IMDB Votes: 265729, ID: 0479884 Photo by wikimedia.org, is licensed under CC BY ND 4.0 Crank is a high-octane film that perfectly showcases Jason Statham’s action prowess. The film’s premise, involving a hitman poisoned with a synthetic Chinese compound, is as thrilling as it is unique. Despite its gleeful depravity, Crank delivers a strong dose of adrenaline that will thrill audiences. Its humor and over-the-top action make it a memorable addition to the action genre. 13. Crank: High Voltage 2009,IMDB Rating: 6.1, IMDB Votes: 160179, ID: 1121931 Photo by wikimedia.org, is licensed under CC BY ND 4.0 Crank: High Voltage is a wild ride that doesn’t hold back. It’s an over-the-top action flick that’s so outrageous, it’s hard not to be entertained. The film’s relentless pace and absurd humor make it a unique cinematic experience. 14. The Mechanic 2011,IMDB Rating: 6.5, IMDB Votes: 173321, ID: 0472399 Photo by lh5.ggpht.com, is licensed under CC BY ND 4.0 The Mechanic is a solid action thriller with a compelling performance by Jason Statham. The film’s plot is intriguing, and the action sequences are well-executed. However, the film’s strength lies in its exploration of the complex relationship between the characters. 15. Mechanic: Resurrection 2016,IMDB Rating: 5.7, IMDB Votes: 94630, ID: 3522806 Photo by coyotepr.uk, is licensed under CC BY ND 4.0 Mechanic: Resurrection, while not a masterpiece, is a decent action flick. The film’s plot is somewhat predictable, but the action sequences are impressive. Jason Statham delivers a strong performance, making the film worth a watch. 16. Olympus Has Fallen 2013,IMDB Rating: 6.5, IMDB Votes: 294281, ID: 2302755 Photo by m.cdn.blog.hu, is licensed under CC BY ND 4.0 Olympus Has Fallen is a gripping political thriller. The film’s plot, which centers on a terrorist attack on the White House, is intense and action-packed. Gerard Butler’s performance as a Secret Service agent is commendable. 17. London Has Fallen 2016,IMDB Rating: 5.9, IMDB Votes: 171006, ID: 3300542 Photo by coyotepr.uk, is licensed under CC BY ND 4.0 London Has Fallen is an action-packed sequel that delivers on thrills. The film’s plot, which involves a terrorist attack on London, is engaging. Despite some plot holes, the film’s intense action sequences and Gerard Butler’s performance make it an enjoyable watch.
