Arnold by a mile over the rest of the pack.
Sly would be next
Denzel and Cruise are definitely up there also, just a different kind of action which I hold in high regard.
Keanu definitely has a case for top 5.

I still need to see John Wick 2
Now that you mention it.....
Speed was a classic.
Matrix was genre defining.
John Wick now has a strong cult following
He directed Man of Taichi.
Guy is up there but in a low key kind of way.

Yo OP let me have a word with you...
just saw john wick 2
between the matrix & john wick franchises he's got a claim
I swear I hate yall. Muthafukkas watch a few movies and automatically hail someone the king of an entire genre.
He is definitely top tier, but to call him the GOAT is a bit of a stretch. I think he tried to take his career in a direction that did not really fit his talents. John Wick type of movies is what he should have been going after all along, but he had a 10+ year stretch in where his career was really strange.
John Wick Chapter 2 was solid, but that first one is special just because of how unexpected it was.

Hell no.
I gonna need someone to make this a negged gif.
On topic Reeves has a more than solid history of action movies going back to Point Break, Speed, Johnny Mnemonic, etc. His track record was iffy in the genre until the Matrix put him on a higher level. I wouldn't call him the greatest but taking everything he's done all together I'd say he's easily top 10 with a case to be made for top 5.

No love for Jackie Chan?
That said, Arnold, Sly, Cruise, and Bruce are definitely up there.
I wonder who the GOAT black action movie star would be? I'm guessing either Jai White, Denzel, Samuel L., or Wesley. (...and much respect to the late, great Jim "the Dragon" Kelly
