The top 5 as voted by you the pulse community.
Bruce Lee is the freaking man. Without Lee it would be hard to see many of the guys on this list be as great as they are because he broke down martial arts films here in America. It was sad that he had to pass so young along with his son Brandon, both great in what they did but in honor of this we have made him. Number 5.
Chuck Norris only allowed this list to make himself look like a nice guy. The man who has more facts about him than anyone else is also a pretty good ass kicker in his own right. Chuck has gone on to kick ass in a ton of movies. Lonewolf Mcquade, Missing In Action, a ton of older martial arts films and one where Number 5 on this list kicks his ass, and will be in the Expendables 2 this summer. So keep reading or Chuck will give you a round house kick.
Bruce Willis what hasn't he done? He has killed terrorists, aliens, dudes who want to kill him and others, he has been unbreakable, had to go drill on an asteroid about to hit earth and destroy it, and just about anything you can think of and come looking like a bloody mess. Without his contributions the actions genre would be pretty boring except I think number 1 and number 2 would have something to say about it.
Arnold, Arnold, Arnold. This man has wiped out a whole army by himself in Commando, Killed an Alien that wiped out his whole band of merry soldiers that were with him including (Jesse "The Mind" Ventura). Arnold comes in hard kills and utters one liners like no one else, mainly because you cant understand the rest of what he is saying except for the one line. Just think about what he has done. Conan, Commando, Raw Deal, True Lies, Predator, Terminator, Red Sonja, Red Heat, and Total Recall. He will also be in the Expendables 2 movie that is coming out this summer also. In my mind he is number 1 when it comes to action but since we voted on this and I do believe that Number 1 and 2 can be interchangeable.
Stallone is number 1 in our poll of top 20 action stars. Stallone kicks ass and has been kicking ass for a long time. The Italian Stallion has had two very successful movie franchises which I do believe has helped him leap over number 2. Those are Rocky and Rambo. He also had other great action romps in Demolition Man, Cobra, Lock Up, Cliffhanger, Judge Dredd, and others. Stallone can look like a nice guy but will probably come kick your ass if you look at him the wrong way.
I would like to thank everyone for participating.
