e:
Some of mine are:
Iron Man
Batman
X-Men
Shooter
Wanted
Matrix
I am Legend
Shoot em up
Fast and the furious
The Recruit
Harry Potter
LOTR
Chronicles of Riddick
etc

The Rock (Sean Connery, Nicholas Cage, Ed Harris, John C. McGinley)
E: If you consider Harry Potter to be an action movie, then I suggest you go watch Lord of the Rings.

I watched it yesterday, and it was pretty decent. The begining was meh, but the rest of it seemed pretty cool (even though the gunfights were obviously cheesy because of the stances and stuff).
Also, about the other two above posts, i've seen all of those :p
C'mon people, give me some awesome shit I haven't seen before!

Robocop. DEFINITELY. Even though it's made before 1980, its fucking top notch.

How did you not like the FPS sequence of Doom. It was probably the best part of the movie. The pinky fight was legit.

RoboCop was released in 1987, genius. But it is top-notch without a doubt.
Also, it deeply saddens me that nobody has posted Hard Boiled and The Killer. Those movies are the greatest action movies in the entire history of cinema. See for yourself, with the one-take hospital scene from Hard Boiled and the house shootout from The Killer, respectively.

Collateral is one of my favorite films. Decent amount of action, Cruise plays the role of a heartless killer believably, and Foxx got a well deserved Oscar nod for his acting. Plus it's a Michael Mann movie, so the gun play is as realistic as you will find in any movie.

Oh, speaking of cruise control, has anyone seen Valkyrie? I was going to, but saw Bolt instead :D

valkyrie was good. if anything it opened some ignorant peoples eyes up about hitler's germany. However, I wouldn't exactly call it an action movie.
