十大經典動作電影盤點:每一部都讓人熱血沸騰

1. Terminator 2: Judgement Day (1992)
《終結者2:審判日》(1992)

James Cameron's deafening chef-d'oeuvre is the creative peak of late-20th century muscle cinema: the film firebombs you with spectacle, noise and excitement. Arnold Schwarzenegger, returning as a time-travelling cyborg, is elevated from hero to icon.
詹姆斯•卡梅隆的這部作品名聲震耳欲聾,是20世紀末硬漢電影的創作高峯。片中視覺奇觀和激動人心的劇情讓你熱血沸騰。阿諾•施瓦辛格以半機器時間旅行者的形象迴歸,這個人物已經從英雄角色昇華爲一代偶像。


2. Fast Five (2011)
《速度與激情5》(2011)

Who'd have guessed that summer 2000's hotrod caper flick would push up to 8 installments? It's getting too big for its boots, actually, as the ever-expanding roster of guest stars shoves the running times up and the bombast through the roof. Justin Lin floored it nicely with 2009's Fast & Furious, but it's the next one that hit a series-high sweet spot.
誰能想到2000年夏季上映的大馬力改裝車犯罪電影《速度與激情》能夠拍到第8部?事實上,該片的攤子鋪得過大,越來越多客串巨星擠佔飆車場面,內容浮誇空洞。2009年林詣彬導演的《速度與激情4》很好地解決了這個問題,但接下來的《速5》纔將該系列電影推向高潮。


3. The Bourne Supremacy (2004)
《諜影重重2》(2004)


When Greengrass took the Bourne reins over, he turbo-charged the pace of the contemporary action thriller and made it connect in a wholly new way with the world it wanted to be set in. This wasn't dumb or purely headlong speed, but a kind of intelligent velocity. Many squirmed and struggled to keep pace.
格林格拉斯接棒伯恩之後,將這部現代動作驚悚片的節奏加快,以全新的方式與其設定的世界相連接。這樣的節奏並不拙劣,或者操之過急,而是非常聰明。很多人會感到不安,跟不上節奏。

But if you threw yourself into the film the way Greengrass intended, the sense of acceleration felt like a chemical upgrade to the synapses: the whirl of detail, sound and ever-present threat ushered in a new age for verité suspense.
但如果你按照格林格拉斯設計的方式去欣賞影片,那種加速的感覺好像讓你的感官得到升級:片中的細節、聲音以及永遠存在的威脅交織成一個漩渦,爲真實懸疑電影開闢了一個新時代。

4. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000)
《臥虎藏龍》(2000)


Somewhere in the unusual hinterland between Oscar-courting prestige art film and delirious blade-swishing extravaganza, Ang Lee managed to, an absolutely whopping global hit which ushered Western viewers very consciously into the scenic glories of its Qing dynasty. Without it, Zhang Yimou's subsequent Hero (2002) and House of Flying Daggers (2004) probably wouldn't have charged into the fray either.
李安的《臥虎藏龍》介於追求奧斯卡聲望的藝術電影和舞刀弄劍的視覺盛宴之間,這種創新的題材與衆不同。該片在全球熱映,讓西方觀衆在不知不覺間領略了清朝的秀麗風光。如果沒有《臥虎藏龍》,可能就沒有張藝謀的同類題材作品《英雄》(2002年)、《十面埋伏》(2004年)與之媲美。


5. John Wick (2014)
《疾速追殺》(2014)


Take a slug of John Woo, a shot of Walter Hill, and just a dash of the Goth-grief sensibility of The Crow, and you have the throwbackiest film on this list: one which not coincidentally reanimates the action-hero credentials of Keanu Reeves.
《疾速追殺》是這份榜單中最懷舊的一部電影,它在吳宇森作品的影子中融合一點沃爾特•希爾電影的風格,再加上少許《烏鴉》中的哥特式悲傷情感。這部電影讓基努•裏維斯的動作片英雄形象獲得了新生,這並非偶然。

6. A Better Tomorrow (1986)
《英雄本色》(1986)


John Woo's highly-strung Hong Kong gangster flick might be the most influential film you've never heard of: its bloody fingerprints appear on everything from Reservoir Dogs to The Matrix.
吳宇森的這部香港黑幫電影劇情緊張激烈,可能是你所聽過的最有影響力的作品:其血腥風格影響了《落水狗》、《黑客帝國》等多部電影。


7. Die Hard (1988)
《虎膽龍威》(1988)


John McTiernan's howlingly enjoyable romp pared the Eighties action film down to its bare essentials: take one hero (in this case, Bruce Willis's sardonic cop), place in a tight spot (LA's Nakatomi Plaza), season with terrorists, and wait for the bang.
約翰•麥克蒂爾南的《虎膽龍威》是一部令人十分享受的動作冒險電影,它揭露了上世紀80年代動作電影的本質:把一個英雄(布魯斯•威利斯扮演的愛嘲諷人的警察)置身於危險的境地(洛杉磯的中臣廣場),加入一些匪徒增加看點,然後等待最後一爆。

8. Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol (2011)
《碟中諜4》(2011)


There aren't many standalone set pieces on this list which top that dangling lab descent in Mission: Impossible (1996), thanks to Brian De Palma's exquisite choreography and that lone bead of Cruisean sweat threatening catastrophe. But the plot was a confused mess; this, overall, is easily the best-organized film of the series, finding new ways to imperil its leading man – how about we chuck him off the Burj Khalifa this time? – and to whisk him and the IMF crew through a maze of intrigue we don't get lost in.
這份榜單上很少有電影的動作花樣能夠超越《碟中諜1》(1996年)中懸掛下降到實驗室的場面,多虧了布萊恩•德•帕爾瑪精湛的動作設計,以及讓克魯茲式的危險災難場景,《碟中諜4》做到了。不過,《碟中諜4》的劇情是一團混亂。總的來說,本片還是輕鬆成爲碟中諜系列電影中設計最棒的一部,開闢了虐男主的新方式(這次我們把他趕到迪拜塔上怎麼樣?),通過一系列如迷宮般複雜但沒有把我們搞糊塗的陰謀活動,讓男主角和國際貨幣基金組織的員工攪和到一起。


9. Speed (1986)
《生死時速》(1986)


Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock are on a bus that will explode if its speed drops beneath 50 miles per hour. Jan de Bont's film achieves must-see status on that plot summary alone – and lives up to it.
基努•裏維斯和桑德拉•布洛克坐在一輛公交車上,如果車速降到50英里/小時以下,這輛車就會爆炸。簡•德•邦特的《生死時速》僅憑劇情簡介,就成爲一部必看電影,而該片也的確不會讓人失望。

10. Kill Bill: Vols 1 & 2 (2003-4)
《殺死比爾1/2》(2003-4)


We all knew how good Quentin Tarantino was at aping forms, reviving pulp, resurrecting careers… but perhaps not how dexterously he could hybridize the iconography of kung fu, grindhouse and the spaghetti western, into a “rampage of revenge” so giddy with genre-splicing potential that it burst the banks of a single feature.
我們都知道昆汀•塔倫蒂諾有多麼擅長模仿形式、翻拍低俗小說,重振事業……但你可能不知道他能多麼巧妙地將功夫、磨坊電影以及意大利式美國西部片融合成一股“復仇的狂怒”,影片令人眼花繚亂,拼接了多種題材,突破了單一風格。
