    Who else is a fan?

    Yet another in a long line of 80s action movies that were dumb as Hell, but highly fun to watch.

    Action Jackson is a hilarious movie, and very fun.

    In the 90s, dumb action movies ecane less fun to watch because they took themselves too seriously.

    You didnt miss anything.
    It's just Carl Weathers 'cashing-in' (lol), on the two movies he was good in.

    Put it this way: 9% on Rotten Tomatoes...

    Things took a turn for the worse after 1990. Without question.

    Loved it. Back in the 80’s while many of you homo’s were watching musicals and Disney movies I was watching action flicks like this.

    Don’t get it twisted, this movie was no more realistic than the shit Stallone, Willis and Ahnold was doing and they were all fun.

    Today this movie would be laughable and probably hard to watch but if back in the 80’s you thought Action Jackson was ridiculous, you were probably just a miserable cunt...or (wait for it)...racist.

    Or, smart and astute enough to know it's a) far sub-standard to any other proper 80s action movie and therefore, b) shit



    We know what we're talking about, sonny.

    I remember liking this as a kid and seeing it as an adult and seeing that it sucked.

    I think I learned the terms “handjob” and “foot job” from this movie
