Ingmar Bergman's The Silence.

A jolly, fun-filled uplifting little tale.

Not loads of action, but I would reccomend Taken if you've not seen it already, however steer well clear of Unknown.

Narc.

It's not cheesy action mind - like with Willis, Arni, et al.

Die Hard.
Zombieland (maybe slightly more comedy then action, but still great).
No Country For Old Men.
The Matrix.

Go old school and watch something like The Eagle Has Landed or Zulu.

Crank 1 and 2. Seagal's Out For Justice or Nico. Tango and Cash, Demolition Man. Commando as above, or Running Man. Then Predator, or Rambo 4.

I've just recently (re)discovered some of John Carpenters stuff,

So I'd recommend digging out :-

Big trouble in little China.

Very old school, but brilliant IMHO.
