Cult Classic Action Movies That Were Hammered By Critics

November 1, 2020 by Red Stewart

Marvelous Videos presents 11 well-made action flicks that are quite good…

We don’t want to join any bandwagon- whether you’re a film critic or a general moviegoer chances are you have watched a film and developed a valid opinion as to its quality, and because the medium as a whole is subjective, no one can objectively be called right or wrong.

Yet, sometimes critics do overlook things: things that are picked up on by the average joe sitting at home with a DVD player. This leads to the creation of cult classics, and no genre has created more of them than action movies.

As such, our pals at Marvelous Videos have set up a list of 11 of these worth your time; take a look at the video here…
