HIT LIST

To me, just about EVERY Action Movie is a Hit!
It's not often I think I could have done without seeing that or wish I had those 2 hours back. Most of what I write is an appreciation of the genre.
A fawning over and drooling on all the best bits.
A love of all things Action Movie!

DISCLAIMER: The site is a hobby and a work in progress.  I add things live and I know I have a long way to go.  Go easy on me, I'm programming from scratch (tables and links: tah-dah!). 
I am about half way through a massive subgenre project, and a lot of these links will become live when linked to shorter descriptions within that project.
