2001 obviously more acclaimed, but this was a really good sci fi movie.

Scotland, PA - updated Macbeth tale. Christopher Walken is fantastic as the detective.

War of the Arrows - South Korean historical piece with a guy rescuing his sister from Manchurian raiders. It is a non-stop action flick.

With the recent passing of Mark Margolis, Defiance(2008) is another film I feel fits this category.

The Last Boy Scout is a great movie, but probably not quite up to Die Hard level. I put it in a group with The Long Kiss Goodnight and Ricochet as movies that were great for their time, so-close to being eternal classics but for some reason you can’t quite put your finger on, just missed.

Man, I love Fear of a Black Hat. I think it's the superior rap mockumentary to Chris Rock's CB4

Don't shoot until you see the whites...

I’m assuming you’ve seen The Thick of It?
