Pretty much any movie directed by John Woo starring Chow Yun-Fat will be on the list.
A Better Tomorrow II (remake of A Better Tomorrow with bigger budget)
A Better Tomorrow
*avoid A Better Tomorrow III
*also avoid The Replacement Killers

Full Contact starring Chow Yun-Fat directed by Ringo Lam
God of Gamblers starring Chow Yun-Fat (slow middle sections, and tense gambling)
The Corruptor starring Chow Yun-Fat (bit less action, and more character, but still very good)

Seven Samuri

Big Trouble In Little China

Das Boot: The Director's Cut

Conan the Barbarian *Find the widescreen version, not cropped
The Terminator
Terminator II

Enter the Dragon *Director's Cut
any other Bruce Lee movie

Nowhere to Hide starring Jang Dong-Kun, Ahn Sung-Ki and directed by Lee Myung-se

(anime)
Ninja Scroll
Fist of the North Star

Some old favorites:

Cliffhanger- John Lithgow plays a detestable asshole, who I just wish I could get my hands on.

That's to his credit; I love the guy in everything else.

Broken Arrow- No less than 3 helicopter explosions!

Legend of the Drunken Master- Nuff said.

I get the feeling "Kill Bill" will be high on my list of action films.

Saving Private Ryan was superb. You just have to see the landing on D-day
