 | XXX (Unrated Director's Cut)
Buy new: $15.49 / Used from: $1.07 This version of "XXX" has a lot more action which wasn't in the original theatrical version, which makes it pretty good.
|
 | XXX - State of the Union (Widescreen Edition)
Buy new: $12.49 / Used from: $0.14 Yeah, this is one of those "popcorn" action movies, but it's a lot of fun to watch, nonetheless.
|
 | Doom (Unrated Widescreen Edition)
Buy new: $9.49 / Used from: $0.01 This is one of the better videogame-based movies, and the unrated version fills in a lot of plot gaps which were present in the theatrical version.
|
 | Hitman (Unrated Two-Disc Special Edition + Digital Copy)
Buy new: $31.99 / Used from: $2.50 Yet another videogame-based movie which -- shock of shocks!! -- was surprisingly good, and captured the spirit of the videogame trilogy.
|
 | Next
Buy new: $16.49 / Used from: $1.99 Another "popcorn" sci-fi movie which is redeemed by the presence of two of my favorite actors, Nicolas Cage and Julianne Moore.
|
 | Face/Off (Two-Disc Special Collector's Edition)
Buy new: $17.99 / Used from: $2.95 Any movie which features John Travolta and Nicolas Cage promises to be good, and this action flick is worthy of a bowl of popcorn.
|
 | The Core (Widescreen Edition)
Buy new: $9.49 / Used from: $0.16 This is one of those epic "disaster" movies where you have to check your science at the door, but it's still good fun, with an amazingly good (yet unreleased) orchestral score by Christopher Young.
|
 | Independence Day (Two-Disc Collector's Edition)
Buy new: $24.49 / Used from: $9.66 Still a good "popcorn" movie, yet after the events of 9/11, this movie seems rather innocent, almost naive, in a way.
|
 | The Sentinel (Widescreen Edition)
Buy new: $13.49 / Used from: $0.01 This is a "popcorn" movie with plenty of suspense, political intrigue and action. It's really not bad, with a top-notch cast to boot.
|
 | No Way Out
Buy used from: $2.40 Another one of my favorite "popcorn" movies, with enough spine-tingling suspense and action to keep you on the edge of your seat.
|
 | Grindhouse Presents, Planet Terror - Extended and Unrated (Two-Disc Special Edition)
Buy new: $10.49 / Used from: $2.03 This is a really good, "popcorn" movie, especially if you like plenty of action, chills, thrills and zombies.
|
 | Grindhouse Presents, Death Proof - Extended and Unrated (Two-Disc Special Edition)
Buy new: $10.99 / Used from: $2.61 Another totally cool 70's style "popcorn" movie, and it's the best of the "Grindhouse" double feature movies.
|
 | Dreamcatcher (Widescreen Edition)
Buy new: $9.99 / Used from: $0.01 Yeah, I admit it ... this big screen adaptation of a Stephen King novel has it's own element of "popcorn" to it, and any horror movie which boasts a good cast, including Morgan Freeman, isn't all bad.
|
 | The Mist (Two-Disc Collector's Edition)
Buy new: $20.49 / Used from: $3.81 Another well-done Stephen King "popcorn" movie -- directed by Frank Darabont (who directed The Green Mile and The Shawshank Redemption -- two of my all-time favorite movies) -- which should have done much better at the box office.
|
 | Ultraviolet (Unrated, Extended Cut)
Buy new: $8.49 / Used from: $0.97 Yet another interesting "popcorn" movie in which Milla Jovovich proves that she can kick butt and look gorgeous at the same time.
|
 | Aeon Flux (Special Collector's Edition)
Buy new: $12.49 / Used from: $0.94 This movie makes for an interesting double feature with "Ultraviolet", as the MTV animated series comes to life with Charlize Theron looking lovely and doing a bit of butt-kicking as well.
|
 | Entrapment (Special Edition)
Buy new: $13.49 / Used from: $1.13 This is a really GOOD "popcorn" movie, with romance, suspense, thrills, a cool orchestral score and ... Sean Connery. Who could ask for anything more?
|
 | Species (Collector's Edition)
Buy new: $13.49 / Used from: $3.55 The first and the best (IMO) of the "Species" movies with scares, action and tongue-in-cheek humor deftly blended together.
|
 | The Punisher (Extended Cut)
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $1.75 Oddly enough, I like this new version of "The Punisher" better than the original theatrical version, because several plot gaps which were in the original theatrical version are filled in quite well with the additional footage.
|
 | Robocop (20th Anniversary Collector's Edition)
Buy new: $16.49 / Used from: $5.97 This classic "popcorn" sci-fi action film marked Dutch director Paul Verhoeven's English-language directorial debut, and what a debut it was!
|
 | The Wesley Snipes Collection: Demolition Man/Murder at 1600/Passenger 57
Buy used from: $13.30 Three of my favorite "popcorn" movies (including "Demolition Man", which had a nice satirical edge to it) in one action-packed collection. If you can find this set, get it!
|
 | Blade - Trinity (New Line Platinum Series)
Buy new: $5.79 / Used from: $0.49 The final chapter in the "Blade" film series, and also the most fun to watch, with plenty of action, and a bit of comic relief along the way, provided by another of my favorite actors, Ryan Reynolds.
|
 | Along Came a Spider
Buy new: $9.49 / Used from: $0.82 Another big screen version of a James Patterson novel with Morgan Freeman as Alex Cross. This was a lot better than I expected, and a good orchestral score (by the late Jerry Goldsmith) compliments it nicely.
|
 | Enchanted (Widescreen Edition)
Buy new: $13.99 / Used from: $3.47 One of those rare Disney live-action movies which is great fun for kids while being cheerfully sophisticated enough for adults to enjoy.
|
 | Casino Royale (2-Disc Widescreen Edition)
Buy new: $5.49 / Used from: $1.24 I thought this latest James Bond movie wouldn't be good, but was I pleasantly surprised. Grab the popcorn, y'all!
