Old Boy. Possibly the best movie ever made. Definitely the best revenge movie ever made. Unless you prefer one of the others in the trilogy. They are all genius.

Wow, it's been a long time since anyone's answered this thread, but I looovvvee movies with themes of:
Space, Suspense, Monsters (werewolves, mummies) Aliens, Predators, Aliens v. Predators. ( I think you get it) When Ridley Scott produces such a movie, I'm there.

Almost any John Woo film from his Hollywood/Heroic Bloodshed era except Just Heroes (kinda lame) and Blackjack (not only Woo's worst film ever, but also Dolph Lundgren's worst--so far)
Total Recall
Ben-Hur
Running Scared ('06)
Die Hard
Die Hard 2
Assault on Precinct 13
They Live
Lethal Weapon
Lethal Weapon 2
Ghost in the Shell
Akira
Ninja Scroll
FLCL
RoboCop
Scarface
Heat
The Shining
Raiders of the Lost Ark
All the Rambo films
All the Evil Dead films
I really enjoy most of Jean-Claude Van Damme and Jason Statham's films, too, although they're more guilty pleasures than anything else
Jet Li movies are great, too
The first two Predator films
And the first two Alien films

And too many others.

I think after American Soldier (I hope I got the name right) with Jean-Claude Van Damme, Dolph Lungdren's roles just went downhill. I don't know which was worst than the other, but they all sucked. His role in Rocky is what shot him into stardom.

And there are just too many for me, too. I forgot to mention Bruce Willis' Die Hard series up to "Live Free or Die Hard", and "Rambo".

Universal Soldier, lol. Yeah, I really like that one. I've only seen the first Rocky but I'd like to rectify that sometime. I actually don't even mind the fifth Die Hard, but I agree it's way below par compared to the first four.

Wasn't Lundgren also in one of the James Bond films?

Good eye! He was in "View to a Kill" as a KGB agent named Venz starring alongside his then fiancée, Grace Jones.

Rocky 2 and 3 are really good. But after that? Well, I'll let you decide:) It's like the more sequels they make, the worse they get. And yet, there's a new one coming out that centers on Apollo's son, with Rocky training him. I don't know how good that one will do.

But the James Bond series seems to get better and better. As soon as I get some free time, I'm going to revisit them all! Thanks for reminding me, Alexander.

Gone With the Wind

Lost in Translation

Spy Game

And a ton of others...

Dolph has a small part in A View To A Kill (he was dating Grace Jones at the time)
