All of them appear to be very violent movies. Is that what makes them good movies?

They are ACTION movies which usually have some violence.

Rotten Tomatoes has lists of other kinds of top movies in various genres.

Can't stand watching a movie I already know the ending. Hero gets shot at hundreds of times but never gets hit. Yet, he hits everyone in his path with one gun. Hero saves the damsel in distress. Together, they hightail it out while everything behind them is blowing up with blazes of fire everywhere.

Again, the hero has managed to save the world! Doesn't take a genius to figure out that ending.

A lot of these did very well in the box office, ones we saw were fun to watch even though you knew the hero, say James Bond will save the day.

I think all of those movies did very well and it would be hard to not have seen them somewhere. They are all over our culture. They are on just about every week on some channel. Probably not Riders of Justice though.

Default Goof action movie

Just watched "Hunter Killers" on HBO. Old movie, but great if you want action.

I have seen that a number of times. Think the first was at the Rialto.

All the Jason Bourne movies, and Saving Private Ryan were worth watching in my book.
007 should be in 'Comedy Adventure' list.
The rest?

I too helped kill Cinemas!

I never go by the critic reviews and only look at the audience scores.
