Each era has its own great films, and in the 1970s these were the ten best action flicks.
10. Magnum Force
Dirty Harry doing his thing without a care in the world besides getting his job done. This time he’s seeking out some vigilante cops intent on doing anything to get rid of the undesirables.
9. Jaws
Don’t go in the water, at least not when Jaws is around. This film caused such a stir that to this day thousands of people still refuse to go into the ocean.
8. Escape From Alcatraz
Imagine trying to escape from one of the most secure prisons in the world, That’s what this action packed film is all about.
7. Rocky II
Not as good as the first but still one heck of a fun movie to watch with all the glorious boxing scenes.
6. Deliverance
The camping trip from hell. They really should have just gone golfing instead of taking that weekend getaway.
5. Alien
Weaver kicks ass as a woman who refuses to be killed by some larger than life alien.
4. Apocalypse Now
One of the most realistic looks at war, and the famous Marlon Brando drunken scene in the room where he really was drunk.
3. Star Wars The ultimate sci-fi action film. Intergalactic battles and interstellar domination.
2. Rocky
Stallone’s smartest movie. It’s poignant, biting and keeps you on the edge of your seat.
1. Dirty Harry
Clint Eastwood with no regard for the rules. It’s a classic, there’s no other way of looking at it.
