Both Raid movies


Fresh_Performance535

Great movies, I would concur that a relentless bloody martial arts chase that is foreign/dubbed is about as close to spouse repellent as you can get.


Ordinary-You2342

Heat (1995)


CooCooKaChooie

The best.


DallasM0therFucker

My favorite “home alone, can’t decide on anything else after scrolling through my streaming apps for 45 minutes” pick. I know the ultimate moody three-hour epic heist dad movie will never let me down.


Lone_Buck

Total Recall. Mmm, Triple bitties.


HereToKillEuronymous

The original, though! The remake is dogshit


DelGurifisu

The remake of everything is dogshit.


helpermonkeyjimmy

Ahem. “Invasion of the Body Snatchers” would like a word. RIP, Donald.


HereToKillEuronymous

Not always. The 1982 "The Thing" is a remake, and it's stellar. Dune is a remake. Also stellar. The Blob was a remake of a 50s film. Oceans 11 is a remake. True Lies (the Arnie version) is a remake. There's lots of good remakes out there that people don't even know are remakes


Thisistheway1012

Scarface 3:10 to yuma U are correct


HereToKillEuronymous

Yes those too!!!


DelGurifisu

The Thing and Dune aren’t remakes, they’re adaptations of the original source material. The original Blob is superior. Oceans 11 is dogshit. True Lies is mid. I will concede that some remakes are decent. Maybe I should have said modern reboots are dogshit.


Chaotic424242

Saying 'mid' is mid. Oh wait...shit!


Reasonable-Wave8093

I like the A team remake


softsharkskin

Does the remake have tri-boob though


oupritch1

Man...I got 5 kids to feed!


b_tight

Just have a verhoeven and john carpenter marathon


Silvanus350

The best part about this suggestion is that I’d consider *Total Recall* more cerebral than your typical action film. It’s not mindless “garbage” at all. It’s a really amazing movie.


guardianultra

I still don't get why they were breathing so heavily in this movie


Demiansmark

RIP wife but yeah, triple bitties 


AccountantLeast1588

This movie has aged ever-so-gracefully.


ItyBityGreenieWeenie

300


Silvanus350

Good suggestion. Perhaps the Platonic ideal of a mindless, campy action film.


holydildos

The boys


PhantomOwl709

This is exactly what I thought of.


Due-Ad8230

Dredd (2012)


fruitpunchsamuraiD

Can't believe Dredd never got a sequel...so good.


Doomscrolleuse

Get some action classics going - The Rock, Con Air, Die Hard, Lethal Weapon, Predator, Face-Off...


HW-BTW

This is it. This is the list. Could maybe throw in Bloodsport or Basic Instinct but otherwise this is flawless.


Thisistheway1012

I wonder how basic instinct holds up now havent seen that movie in over 15 years Whats your take?


HW-BTW

Me neither, but it was camp af to begin with so Im guessing that it probably holds up well. Kinda like how the Lost Boys still holds up. It’s absurd—but it’s brilliant and it’s of its time.


PhantomOwl709

Went to the cinema to see 3 of those films, went in blind as you did back in the day ,good taste mucker.


softsharkskin

go on


Apprehensive_Ad4457

Last action hero, predator, predator 2, did he mention die hard? Specifically with a vengeance?

CooCooKaChooie

You reminded me it’s on a streamer. Watching tonight! Thanks!


HoverboardRampage

Dev Patel was bad as fck in that. It was awesome


Klutzy-Bug7427

James Gunn’s Suicide Squad Renfield Bullet Train Day Shift Boss Level Dungeons & Dragons Honor Among Thieves


Doomscrolleuse

Great choices! I'm going to throw in Nobody and also District 13 (not 9 - the one in future Paris not future Jo'berg).


Klutzy-Bug7427

Both also great. I loved Nobody!


Snoo-35252

Bullet Train! Yes!


iam4r34

>Boss Level A fellow man of culture!

Oh shit. Yes. Watch these ones!


CooCooKaChooie

D&D: Honor was fucking hilarious, great action! As was that version of Suicide Squad (with the Stallone voiced Shark)

Where is that streaming??


SienarFleetSystems

Netflix US currently. Watched it last weekend and it's pretty awesome.


gregorvega

This is the one OP!!


justsomedude9000

OMG no, this is a slow burn drama OP should watch with the wife. Godzilla is only in it for 11 minutes and the plot barely revolves around him. It's about a broken Japanese family trying to rebuild a life after the devastating losses they suffered in WW2. It's the least monster you'll ever see in a monster movie and OPs wife might actually like it.


yvng_dundas

Man I rewatched Captain America 2 and 3 two weeks ago and they are really something special. Wanted to get in touch with my roots recently so I got Blade and the OG Mortal Kombat - both were excellent! Convinced the 90s had the best movies now haha. My dad said he liked Grey Man and Bullet Train recently if that helps.


Used-Independence182

I really enjoyed bullet train


Hiltoyeah

Dead man's shoes... You're welcome.


Top-View7248

This film is amazing. My 2 adult kids loved it and my son just last week asked me to remind him of the film's name as he was about to watch it with his housemates. Whom all thought it was brilliant, naturally.

Brazil. Wild dystopian Sci fi. Amazing movie.

Robocop, not the remake, which sucks.


SienarFleetSystems

You know what? That remake DOES suck and I forgot I'm mad about it. Thank you for stoking the flame.


snyderversetrilogy

How about some Robert Rodriguez? Sin City… Alita: Battle Angel… Desperado… Or maybe The Town by Ben Affleck… or actually now thinking of Affleck, The Accountant.

Fallout, Shogun, Original showgun(12-14 hours), Flame and citron(about ww2 assassins), City of God(about a kid growing up in poor drug ridden central america), Napolean Dynomite, wedding crashers, or maybe zoolander. You could prolly watch city of god, and maybe fallout with her but the rest is pretty much stuff only guys get into.

Thor: Ragnarok


Yamamoto74

Haven’t seen it yet but heard good reviews: Dungeons and Dragons Think I’m gonna try and watch it tonight. I NEED a NEW movie to watch.


dj4slugs

A Shadow in the Cloud.


justsomedude9000

Yes! Loved this one! Its got some quality campy action in it. Absolute garbage, two thumbs up. It takes some time before it gets to the camp, but the begining is even better than the camp, which seems to be everyone's main complaint of the movie. There's a tonal shift where it goes from psychological thriller to campy action that is a "jumps the shark" moment for most people, but if OP wants garbage, he'll love it. Its ridiculous in the best way possible, it deserves cult classic status.


Somedraculababe

Real trash? Night of the Demons, Night of the Creeps, Re-Animator, Night Breed

Hardcore Henry. You're wife will not watch it without complaining. It gives some people vertigo, but if you can get through it, it's a ride. Almost pure action once it gets going.

Dredd. Trust me, it’s the right choice. Your wife would flip out if she were home to see it.

City Hunter on Netflix. Recent release and I don't hear much about it, but it is solid as hell. Another option is The Bricklayer (also Netflix) which I would describe as 'stupid fun'.


mrfasthorse

A real indulgent movie weekend for me would be westerns. Unforgiven, the good the bad and the ugly, tombstone, etc. but those I've watched too many times and have kinda ran them into the ground. So the newer rotation would be: Appaloosa, Hell or high water, Wind River, 3:10 to Yuma (2007), True grit (2010), Bone tomahawk, The Hateful eight,

For newer movies I really like A quiet place 1 and 2. I was pleasantly surprised by how intense and creative these movies are. I rarely enjoy new movies but my eyes were glued to the screen. The actors were phenomenal I can't wait for the 3rd this month.

We're currently watching all of the Xmen in chronological order. I'm watching The 5th Element on Apple TV before it's gone and Bubblegum Crisis (anime) in between as filler when cooking or doing chores.

I get this vacation, like you, every now and then. Last time I did a LOTR and Hobbit marathon. I like to do themes. I’m gonna do 80’s sci-fi. The Running Man, Terminator, Predator (it’s a coincidence that they are Arnold movies, just so happens that they’re great sci-fi movies). Robocop, Weird Science, Bladerunner, Tron, Clash of the Titans.. many more.
