Amazon Prime has a rich, deep catalog of action movies, so pick your favorites and leave the real world behind

I’m Your Woman. Photo: Amazon Studios Looking for a bit of high-powered escapism tonight? A way to leave the world behind and watch as heroes save the day and stuntmen steal the show? Amazon Prime has a rich, deep catalog of action movies that includes everything from Bruce Lee to Ethan Hunt to Captains Kirk and America. Pick your favorites and leave the real world behind.

*Blood On Her Name More of a slow burn thriller than a traditional action movie, this excellent indie from Matthew Pope should have made Bethany Anne Lind a star. The actress is great as Leigh Tiller, a woman who panics after an accidental killing, and then continues compounding bad decisions. An old-fashioned thriller, the flick also features a strong supporting turn from the always-solid Will Patton.

The Connection Jean Dujardin stars in this excellent French action thriller that tells the story of The French Connection from across the pond. He’s a police magistrate who crosses paths with a drug crime lord who is channeling drugs from France to the United States named Tany Zampa . This is the kind of unique action film that gives viewers a true story that they may have never considered.

*A Fistful of Dollars A Western that helped to redefine what that genre was capable of, 1964’s A Fistful of Dollars is the first in a trilogy of films starring Clint Eastwood and directed by Sergio Leone . Shot in Spain, this is a formative Spaghetti Western, a genre that would influence everyone from Sam Raimi to Martin Scorsese to Quentin Tarantino.

The Italian Job Classic action! No, this is not the Mark Wahlberg remake but the 1969 original that shaped the templates for both the heist movie and the car chase movie. Michael Caine is great as Charlie Croker, the leader of a criminal gang who plan to steal gold bullion from an armored truck in Italy. It doesn’t go exactly as planned.

*Minority Report One of Steven Spielberg’s best modern movies is this adaptation of a Philip K. Dick story about a future in which crime can be predicted before it happens. Tom Cruise stars as a man who is convicted of a crime he has no intent of committing in a fantastic vision of a future in which the systems designed to stop crime have been corrupted. It’s timely and probably always will be.

*Reign of Fire Matthew McConaughey! Christian Bale! Fire-breathing dragons! What more do you want from a movie? This one is crazy. Set in the distant future of 2020 , it tells of how London workers accidentally woke dragons from their slumber, leading to an apocalypse of fire. Is it great? No! Is it fun? Oh yes.

I don't have Braveheart or Alien etc on my Prime account. I don't live nowhere near India but at least 20% of all movies are Indian, which I have absolutely no desire to watch.
