Non-Comic Top Ensemble/Team Action Films

[codykay2]

I was thinking about how the Expendables series had a lot of potential but didn't deliver as much as I hoped for so I started looking at a list of the top grossing action films of all-time and barely noticed any films that were of the "Ensemble/Team" type action film that weren't based on comics or some type of franchise...

I think Predator is still one of the highest grossing films that would fall under this.

Anyone have any good recommendations for movies that plays out the whole team based action genre well?

Of recent times, I would say Gangster Squad fits this category

I found the film quite entertaining at least...

Inception is the most recent that I can think of.

matrix??

 

[Francis Rossi]

Predators

 

[LilMountain]

Ronin, Mission impossible series

Though I dont know if it has enough action to qualify, I'd also say Usual Suspects, Reservoir Dogs and Heat.

 

[Dragonlordxxxxx]

The A-Team

Pick a war movie. 95% of them fit the criteria.

Edit:

Sorry you said top grossing. Saving Private Ryan has to be top grossing in the war category. But Black Hawk Down is my all time fav war movie of all time.

LOL at martrix being original! It's a flat out ripoff of Ghost in the Shell.

Yeah, whilst it may be inspired by things, it's not an adaptation of anything.

Well y'see when I get bored I make up my own movie. I have a vey short attention span.

It's more of a ripoff of Grant Morrison's invisibles than Ghost in the shell.

Even THIS PICTURE tells you what you need to know about each man.

Fun fact, the guy who had the duel in the beginning and played the master samurai had never touched a sword prior to the film.
