Chow Yun-fat is the most likeable actor and the best action hero in my opinion.
He's my favorite. He looks like a normal guy, but when he's doing action, it hits even harder. I also like his more drama-oriented movies because he's not just a cool action hero, but also a very talented actor. He can be both tough as a coffin nail and sensitive at the same time. Plus in real life he's also a polite gentleman and a humble human being, like Keanu Reeves. Chow is the man!

Underrated film
This movie was awesome, it has cool ass action sequences, a badass story of revenge. This film never plays it safe which I like. It's raw, it's gritty, it's badass. Kind of sad we never got to see Rain in more movies like this man, but you can't deny he was kind of on a generational run in 2008-2009 with this and Speed Racer!

Mad Max vs Snake Plissken
Which one had better movies?
Who would win a straight fight to the death?
Who would win in a gunfight?
Which character is cooler?

Looking for high-octane crime films like The Departed, Snatch, Boondock Saints, and so on. And suggestions of films in this vein?

"HIGH ROAD TO CHINA" (1983) - fond memories of this one from VHS-era rentals and always saw it as a decent Raider-esque adventure. Good cast, decent direction, some good action sequences and sense of fun overall. Any fans of this one?
High Road to China is a 1983 adventure-romance film set in the 1920s starring Tom Selleck in his first major starring role, playing a hard-drinking biplane pilot hired by society heiress Eve "Evie" Tozer (Bess Armstrong) to find her missing father (Wilford Brimley).
The supporting cast includes Robert Morley and Brian Blessed. The Golden Harvest film (released by Warner Bros. Pictures) is loosely based on the 1977 novel of the same name by Jon Cleary. However, little beyond character names and the basic premise of an aerial race to China survived the translation to film.
