2025 has delivered some great movies, including one particularly memorable and daring release in theactiongenre. Thanks to the dominance of blockbusters and the timeliness of the summer season, Hollywood has treated those willing to go to the theaters with some exhilarating big-screen experiences so far this year, along with some good ones on streaming.
The frequency with which the industry delivers new action movies has meant stars likeJason Statham, Liam Neeson, Ben Affleck, and Tom Hardy have already delivered some fresh films in the genre. There’s even the popular action comedy film that’s brought the likes of Jack Quaid’sNovocaine, Jamie Foxx and Cameron Diaz’sBack in Action, and Ke Huy Quan’sLove Hurts.
Yet, it’s often franchises and IP that deliver some of the biggest hits in the genre each year.How To Train Your Dragon,Jurassic World Rebirth,Superman,The Fantastic Four: First Steps, andThunderbolts*all have action elements, but none fully exist in the genre, leaning into fantasy, sci-fi, and more instead.
Despite all these releases and theexciting action movies still to come, there is only one movie that can be called the best that the genre has to offer in 2025. And in case you missed it in theaters, it’s now available to watch from the comfort of your own home.
