Did I get that right - any of us can nominate one of the movies on your list?
If that's right, my nomination would be:
Rush

Hi tasmalina, 'good poll! My vote would go to 'Hell or High Water.' I'd nominate the other film in the American Frontier Trilogy, 'Wind River,' but action is not, as of yet, listed on IMDb as a genre. It has at least as much action in it as the Trilogy's other two movies, which are listed as Action, and rogerebert.com and Rotten Tomatoes label it as an action film, as well, so I added action to it on IMDb but it may not approved before this poll goes live so I completely understand if you don't add it to your list.
May I suggest one small edit to the second paragraph of the intro? (The intro is very well written, by the way!) (in bold below: a comma instead of a semi-colon.)

NB: "300" (2006) is knocked off the core list.
I'll retain if someone nominates it for inclusion.

I just wonder about one thing:
Why not make it a complete user-list?
That could work within your criteria.

Nice vote spread.
No Dark Knight or Inception landslides. (I love both those movies, but I think we've had enough.)

Thank you, Tasmalina, for incorporating the edit and including 'Wind River.' As for an additional nomination, I would like to suggest '16 Blocks.' While there are two other films I considered ('Death Proof' and 'Munich'), '16 Blocks' has garnered fewer than 200,000 votes, and I believe it deserves more recognition. I strongly feel that if more people were to watch it, horaire prière toulouse empalot they would enjoy it. Moreover, the movie boasts highly likable main characters, and Bruce Willis delivers a noteworthy performance in a role that deviates from his typical typecasting.
Upon conducting a search for action movies released between 2005 and 2019 with over 200,000 votes, I noticed a predominant presence of superhero movies and sci-fi action films. This realization further enhances my appreciation for this poll!
