The 30 Best Action Movies on Amazon Prime
Briefly

Amazon Prime has a vast collection of action movies, offering audiences a chance to escape reality. James Cameron's groundbreaking 1989 sci-fi film remains unavailable on Blu-ray in the U.S. Cameron revolutionized sequels with his interpretation of Ripley's story, transitioning from horror to action and creating debate over the superior film between the original and its sequel. Sony's 2020 reboot of Anaconda brings attention to a nostalgic, campy favorite. Justin Lin's 'Better Luck Tomorrow' demonstrates a filmmaker's journey from indie roots to blockbuster success, inspiring future creators.
James Cameron redefined the expectations for a sequel when he took over the story of Ripley in this incredible follow-up to Ridley Scott's genre-defining classic. Taking the horror set-up of the original film and turning it into more of an action movie, Cameron reshaped movie history, and started the debate over which film is better. The truth is they're both pretty perfect.
In early 2020, Sony announced that they were rebooting Anaconda, a somewhat forgotten giant snake movie from 1997 that's mostly known for its B-movie value than actual scares. You know what? Sometimes you just want a B-movie. Sometimes you want a giant snake who terrorizes a fun cast like Ice Cube, Jon Voight, Eric Stoltz, Owen Wilson, and Jennifer Lopez.
