recent movies I got that I think are good:

Taken
Defiance
Valkyrie
The International (not as much action)

sfmarine · 06-21-2009, 01:19 PM

Taken was a great movie...

jessdb28 · 06-21-2009, 01:48 PM

I have taken is great, defiance was awesome too, I wouldn't call it an action movie though. Some great BDs that I have, Iron Man, Transformers, and Dark Knight, loads of action. Transformers probably has some of the best visuals I have seen on Bluray yet.

Correction: I have heard taken is great.

Go with Taken all the way. One of the Best new action movies that we have out there at the moment. There's a ton of AWESOME catalogue action movies but in terms of New releases Taken is numero uno.

Get TRANSFORMERS...it has good visual

Iron-Blu-123 · 06-21-2009, 02:07 PM

Taken all the way.

+ 1 Wicked action flick!

Just realized there isn't much in terms on new action movies on Blu lately

ScarredLungs · 06-21-2009, 02:29 PM

Taken
Equilibrium (Not a new release, but still good)

Rob J in WNY · 06-21-2009, 02:44 PM

A lot of good recently released action stuff here. Might I mention Slumdog Millionaire for a recent release. Not exactly an action flick, but has several intense scenes, and the sound mix is gorgeous and enveloping.

Darkhawk9587 · 06-21-2009, 02:57 PM

If a new release, action movie is what you're looking for, I'd go along with everyone else and say Taken.

MaCruz · 06-21-2009, 04:22 PM

Taken was a little short for me, but one of my new favorite films

That movie has not been released state-side yet, so you will have to import it, unless you live in the UK

Eldorado · 06-21-2009, 04:28 PM

Go with Taken.
