Tears of the Sun
I haven't seen the two Statham movies that were mentioned, but I have some advice on his films. Movies with Statham can be quite alright. Movies in which he is the central character tend to be just awful.
I could not watch Tears to completion, I thought it was that awful.
Ronin is likely the best of those already mentioned.
Justified teevee series is terrific.
Blood Diamond convinced me DiCaprio doesn't deserve to be stuffed in a sack and drowned like a litter of unwanted kittens.
Grimm teevee series is good, if you don't mind supernatural elements.
Man on Fire is a good movie.
The two Robert Downey Jr Sherlock Holmes movies I thought particularly well done and got the character's action orientation closer to the books than the drawing-room-agatha-christie-in-drag way he has been played since the dawn of film. His mania is a little over the top, however. And Watson is played like the veteran he was, not a doddering fool for comic relief.
I only saw a few minutes of Get the Gringo at a buddy's place, but I plan on watching the rest.
True Grit and Warhorse for action set in the past.
