10 Epic Action Sequences That You Can Watch Over And Over Again

If you go on Wikipedia – or any other analogous website of your choosing – and check the list of highest-grossing films of all time, you might make a (not so) shocking discovery: it’s an action extravaganza! Indeed, aside from a couple occasional flicks about Ice Queens, talking toys and sinking ships (the last of which, by the way, I have no idea why it’s there), the whole list is dominated by action movies. You have your Avengers, your Pirates, your Transformers and so and so on. In fact, about 16 of the 19 movies that have made over a billion dollars worldwide are categorized as – you guessed it – action.

Inception

Okay, I see we’re starting out small…Christopher Nolan’s dream project was another fantastic addition to the director’s already stunning resume. The film about an elaborate heist taking place in a person’s unconscious gave us a smart, compelling story, thrilling action and great visuals – and it was, without a doubt, one of the best movies of 2010. But despite the film being a stellar ride as a whole, there’s one prominent moment we all still have in the back of our heads. A certain hotel hallway, to be exact.

Granted, the setting might not be anything too special by itself – but add revolving gravity, hand-to-hand combat and an upper-dream-level-car-chase into the mix and you’ve got yourself a hell of an epic action sequence.
