Point Break would certainly make the semis of the Guilty Pleasure bracket, facing strong competition from Roadhouse, Bloodsport, and Tango & Cash.

IMO Point Break would beat any of these.



I'm with you Bob...voiced my displeasure over that omission on page one. Not including Point Break in this bracket is akin to leaving Lady & The Tramp off a cartoon bracket because you feel it's a love story and not a cartoon.

Bottom line: Point Break = 100 Percent Pure Adrenaline.

Point Break is cool and fun but seriously guys, it ain't that great. It didn't get left off because I don't think it's an action movie. It didn't make the cut because it is not a very good action movie.

Willis's character is one of the reasons I think cigarette smoking is so f'n cool when I drink.

I am surprised I didn't take up smoking in junior high or high school because of Bruce. I didn't go around killing German terrorists, either. Who says tv influences kids?

Come on guys.
Predator isn't even the best Sci-fi action flick out there.
That's Aliens.

Voting for the finals is now closed. The winner of the 2012 Action Movie Bracket Challenge is:

PREDATOR!!!!

Please enjoy these quotes from the film:

"Get to the Choppa!"
"Bunch of slack-jawed faggots around here; this stuff will make you a goddamn sexual tyrannosaurus."
"You're one ugly mother-f*****"
"If it bleeds, we can kill it."
"Stick around."
