2012 Award Season: Best Action Movie


Nominees: The Avengers, Expendables 2, The Bourne Legacy, Skyfal

The genre of Action movies has seen its ups and downs over the last decade or so. Gone are the cheap, one liner bad asses, replaced by what it is supposed to be more realistic fighters with decent acting chops. Now, that last part isn't always the case, but you can certainly see in the nominees above, it is the case.


WINNER:
                                     SKYFALL

Older James Bond flicks never featured much action, they've always prided themselves on having a debonair character with a gun and some gadgets. Fast forward to Skyfall and the evolution as a whole of the James Bond films, and you have the best action movie of 2012. From the opening sequence to the many fight scenes, shooting scenes and whatnot, it's a blast (literally).
