I have a question for you , don't you ever get tired of Asian martial arts in movies? I've been dying to see movies about Indian or middle eastern martial arts .
MECKA SINGH here in America most people don't even watch martial arts movies but the ones who do don't even know about Indian or Arab martial arts because no Indian guy in America wants to make such a movie . movies made by white , black and Hispanic people portray Indian men as the worst creatures on earth who only want to give them a hard time in some way

I'm not sure why you think not. The guy has the Fast Franchise, the Riddick franchise, the xXx franchise which is about to release another film, he was in Saving Private Ryan, and he was even in a Marvel movie. Box office wise he has brought in as much as about anyone on the list.
1 Bruce Lee. 2 Arnold. S 3 Jackie Chan. 4 Jet Li. 5 Bruce Willis. 6 Donnie Yen 7 Sylvester Stallone. 8 Jason Statham. 9 Clint Eastwood. 10 Dwayne Johnson
@@deadmen5419tom Cruise does better 😂 you westerners are biased and can't take asians over yourself. Given the resources Tom cruise has, many other hong kong action stars could do what he does and with less investment. With the money tom cruise spents on just one stunt, Jackie Chan will make an entire movie performing much more dangerous stunts.Tom has to spent millions of dollar for his safety, and Jackie does his stunts with way less protection and investment.Also, Jackie is versatile with his action, stunts, fights, and expression, he does everything with perfection. Jackie Chan and Bruce Lee are the most beloved action stars in South East Asia.
Great list, especially with Arnie and Sly being numbers 1 and 2. I would've added Wesley Snipes, Jet Li, Donnie Yen, Scott Adkins, Michael Jai White and Mark Dacascos, but then it'd be closer to a Top 20 list
Top 10 of the Greatest Action Movie Stars missing on the list: Keanu Reeves, Liam Neeson, Vin Diesel, Sean Connery, Tom Hardy, Jet Li, Charles Bronson, Wesley Snipes, Steve McQueen and of course Chuck Norris
This list needs to be updated especially after Mi FALLOUT. Tom cruise is a certified daredevil and needs to be no. 1 for his movies . He has been the action star for the longest among everyone in this list starting from Top Gun. And he still does his own stunts. Incredible. Plus he's also a bigger movie star than everyone in the list so he deserves no.1 imo
Nah, currently he deserves to be #4 at max. What he's doing now is great, and his past action/sci-fi films were too, but he still hasn't quite surpassed the legacies of Willis, Stallone, or Schwarzenegger - who actually do keep making action films.
Ever heard of Jackie Chan, and he does it with way less protection and money investment compared to Tom Cruise. Many of the actors in Hong Kong can do what Tom Cruise does with the resources that he gets.
Chow Yun fat deserved at least an honorable mention, A Better Tomorow, The Killer and Hard Boiled are three of the greatest action films of all time. Try watching films from outside the US.
In regards to JCVD, my favorite scene in any Expendables film is when him and Stallone fight and he roundhouse kicks Stallone down and says "Over so soon? I want my money's worth..come on get up! (roundhouse kick again) GO ON BACK DOWN!" That was pretty badass. Kurt Russell deserves an honorable mention by the way!!!!
JCVD is my favorite all time action star agree with Arnie, and sly Being at number one and two but Kurt Russell hell I grew up on big trouble in Little China definitely should’ve been an honorable mention, at least along with van diesel ect…

My list would be: 1- Arnold Schwarzenegger 2- Bruce Willis 3- Jackie Chan 4- Will Smith 5- Harrison Ford 6- Mel Gibson 7- Tom Cruise 8- Dwayne Johnson 9- Clint Eastwood 10- Sean Connery
You guys are ON POINT with this list. I would have agreed as long as Bruce Lee, Sly Stallone, and Arnold Schwarzenneger were in Top 5. Criteria being: most cult following and most influential when it comes to action movies.
Hell yeah Bruce Willis higher than Tom Booze, I mean Cruise. Lol. Die Hard > Top Gun and he's always gonna be higher on the list, he's one of the origionals from the 80s - 90s and is more of a real tough guy than that pretty boy ass bitch
Rob S. Oh Rob really ?? Bruce Willis is basically a bum right now . I think this list is going to be updated now that fallout is out. Tom cruise is a certified badass daredevil who risks his life for his every movie. Unreal dedication. And he's been the action star longest among all the ppl in this list starting from Top Gun . He deserves to be no.1
Quite completely agree with the List.....but maibe i would gave somewhere a place to Mel Gibson. All of his movies are great action movies and the way he acts is completely natural....he his himself on the screen . Arnond, Sly Bruce and Mel are my favorite action heroes, but my favorite actor is Clint Eastwood
Do add Bruce Lee, Daniel Craig, Chuck Norris, Gordon Liu, Sean Connery, Liam Neeson, Keanu Reeves, Steve McQueen. A top 20 list makes more sense cuz you can't skip any of these legends
Arnold is at #1 were he should be! Tom Cruise has always been a good actor but the last 10 years he has become something of a Legend. Since Vanilla Sky I haven't seen a Tom Cruise movie that I didn't enjoy. Oblivion and Edge of Tomorrow was the shit!
Edge of Tomorrow was actually really badass. I somehow received it free on Google Movies and decided to check it out. A lot better than I would have guessed.
+Abu Osama LOL!!! Me too. Although I don't agree with the order of this list Arnold is probably the best for #1 or #2. Tom Cruise definitely should have been higher than # 6!!
@The Man Becky Lynch Straight fire i'm picturing that trademark run and that mullet ! 😆 joking aside i do agree he deserves to be ranked high on this list! Be safe !
i rank Stallone as #1 because of his ability to write or cowrote or screenplay or direct or produce most of the good movies he stars in like Over the Top, Rocky, Rambo, Demolitian Man, Escape Plan, Expendables, Creed & Samaritan & others meanwhile other action stars may have greater performance.
@Freddie Mercury he may be the one with the latest start to his action career , having cut his teeth first as a dramatic actor! Still he has those particular set of skills! 😅✊
Good list. I would include Chuck Norris, Charles Bronson, Jet Li, Donnie Yen, Byung-hun Lee. Obviously, they can't all be in the Top 10, but at least they'd make the Top 20.
AGREED AGREED AGREED this list is Fantastic even the honourable mentions were fantastic wish it was a more Top 20 list so all those in the honourable mentions could join in and MORE
My Top 10 are: (1) Bruce Lee (2) Jakie Chan (3) Vin Diesel (4) Arnold Schwatznegar (5) Sylvester Stallon (6) Bruce Willies (7) Jet Lee (8) Jason Statham (9) Dwayne Johnson (10) Donnie Yan

Jet li at least deserved an honourable mention
Yes

@The Man Becky Lynch Straight fire i'm picturing that trademark run and that mullet ! 😆 joking aside i do agree he deserves to be ranked high on this list! Be safe !
What do you mean
Wesley Snipes deserved a spot. He was one of the 1st mainstream black action stars and had SEVERAL movies
A fairly good Top 10 with a lot of good Honorable Mentions.
Van Damme is my idol. I own every DVD
Lol, Bruce Willis is above Jackie Chan and Tom Cruise? This list is a joke
Bruce Willis was huge back in the day. But I agree with you
Let me guess #1 is Arnold Schwarzenegger lol
yes....
At least good reason for me to be proud to be austrian :-)
i rank Stallone as #1 because of his ability to write or cowrote or screenplay or direct or produce most of the good movies he stars in like Over the Top, Rocky, Rambo, Demolitian Man, Escape Plan, Expendables, Creed & Samaritan & others meanwhile other action stars may have greater performance.
Many more memorable movies for Arnold: True Lies, Commando, Running Man, Last Action Hero, Red Heat, Eraser
Chuck Norris is not even a mention? What the actual fuck :D
Where is Liam Neeson ?
Liam Neeson is very underrated
Marie-Josee Du facts
@Freddie Mercury he may be the one with the latest start to his action career , having cut his teeth first as a dramatic actor! Still he has those particular set of skills! 😅✊
his movies suck
@@237schibe_ are you kidding? Wtf man
Pretty sure we all knew who the #1 pick was going to be before we even clicked on the video
Good list. I would include Chuck Norris, Charles Bronson, Jet Li, Donnie Yen, Byung-hun Lee. Obviously, they can't all be in the Top 10, but at least they'd make the Top 20.
I will watch these movies again and again and again and again and again and again :D
No Jet Li? No Donnie Yen? No Tony Jaa? No Chuck Norris?
Dornie yen!? You gotta be kidding me
No Dolph Lundgren too !
tony jaa naaah.. not there yet
The list never reaches Chuck Norris because it stops at 1.
I will always give Arnie a pass. He made the 80s great.
So list y’all’s top
Stallone
Arnie
Tom Cruise
Denzel Washington
Keanu reeves
Mel Gibson
Clint Eastwood
Harrison ford
Jean Claude
Bruce Willis
Vin Diesel in Riddick is literally the best action movie , Vin truly set the standard for all action movies
No
Where is Donnie Yen? Liam Neeson? They ought to be at least honorable mentions.
you are so right
And Mark Wahlberg
+Caleb Hu neeson never jumps around....kicking and punching...he dosn need to do tat
***** Well, he did that once in Star Wars.
@caleb hu obviously a stunt double he apparently regrets doing a PHANTOM Menace i think most of us regret that movie! 😅
Oh yea... Arnie wins everything, damn his awesomness has more power than atomic bomb !
Where was Jet Li?
AGREED AGREED AGREED this list is Fantastic even the honourable mentions were fantastic wish it was a more Top 20 list so all those in the honourable mentions could join in and MORE
My Top 10 are:
(1) Bruce Lee
(2) Jakie Chan
(3) Vin Diesel
(4) Arnold Schwatznegar
(5) Sylvester Stallon
(6) Bruce Willies
(7) Jet Lee
(8) Jason Statham
(9) Dwayne Johnson
(10) Donnie Yan

+Shreepsy LOL
+Shreepsy Every other native speaker respects people learning their language, besides some dumb fucks on the internet.
Bruce Lee #4? Really. Should've been top 2
Rasheed Shabazz He just made four and a half films. He does not deserve to be on this list for obvious reasons.
Guillermo Bello and he changed action movies for ever
Rasheed Shabazz No hate to bruce lee but i like jackie more than him
for martial arts 🎥 s specifically , not pure action 💥🔫 💣
@@guillermobello757 it's not about numbers. It's about impact..
Top 10 Phil Collins songs

Great list, althougt I would like to see Ford a little bit higher. When Arnie & Sly are on first two places you know your list is awesome ;)
Jet Li should've at least recieved an honorable mention :(
NineTails I fucking love jet li
I f*cking new Arni's gonna be the first!)
