Fact alert- thrillers are a Hollywood staple. Most movie genres are straightforward; comedy is about laughs, and family movies are suitable for all audiences, but action thriller movies are tough to nail. Not all movies have kidnapping, serial killer, or life-or-death situations running the show, but they still ‘thrill’ us, right? Here is our idea- we do not watch a thriller-we feel it.
A full-fledged thriller keeps us on the edge of our seats- we sweat- on our palms and under our armpits. We keep grinding our teeth and shaking our legs involuntarily from start to finish. We worry about what happens next. Only rightly-executed thrillers can keep the audiences glued to the screens and take on a rollercoaster of emotions.
Thriller is a broad-spectrum term. Under the thriller umbrella, we watch science fiction, magic, horror, psychological dramas, political conspiracies, action, suspense, crimes, torture, and murder mysteries. Over time, Hollywood has released many excellent, gripping, fascinating, and masterful action thrillers making the audience fall for the tension as if it was real.
Are you planning to watch an action thriller movie but can’t decide which one to pick? We have got you. Here we have shortlisted the top 10 best action thriller movies you should watch and get obsessed with.
