Action Movie Hidden Gems On Netflix You Need To Watch At Least Once | Netflix

There's nothing like a good action flick to get your heart pumping. Whether you're a fan of traditional action fare or you prefer to sprinkle your action cinema with elements of fantasy, horror, or even comedy, there's a little something for everyone just waiting to be added to your queue. Here's a look at some of the hidden action gems you won't want to miss.
There's no such thing as a miracle cure, and our protagonist in the sci-fi/action thriller Self/Less finds that out the hard way. The 2015 film features Sir Ben Kingsley as Damian Hale, a billionaire who is diagnosed with terminal cancer but is offered a whole new lease on life when he learns of the so-called "shedding" treatment. This secret medical operation transfers his mind into a newer, healthier body, so when Damian wakes up, he finds himself with an all-new physique, with Ryan Reynolds now portraying the revitalized Damian Hale.
The trouble is, this perfect body was not created in a laboratory, as Damian previously believed, but instead belonged to a man whose memories begin to resurface when Damian fails to take his prescribed medications. Damian learns that his body once belonged to a man named Mark, who has a loving wife and child who are very much still alive. Damian must then race against the clock to find out the truth of this novel "shedding" procedure before Mark's mind either takes over, or fades from his body altogether. Get ready for some serious existential thrills when you queue up Self/Less.

Best list I have seen in a long time. At least 4 new movies to watch. Space Sweepers is awesome.

[@CaesiusX]

Excellent marketing tool. I was completely unaware of some of these films, let alone that they were available on *Netflix.* They are definitely on my watch list _now._

[@FACEBOOKS-WBDS]

MY WORDS EXACTLY

[@brajeshsingh2391]

agreed. this was well done. I was only aware of Unknown and Free State of Jones. But the rest seem good and well made. These are on my watchlist now as well.

[@olocippicolo]

Free State of Jones is a must watch. The ambiance reminds me a little about Red Dead Redemption 2 (though the movie is set in 1860's-70's and Rdr2 is in 1899). Polar was good, there's some really cool action scenes, and Mads Mikkelsen is always a win.

[@crimsonraen]

Thanks for the video! Definitely some good hits in there. :)

[@ToxicVenom3D]

I klkoved working on all them as the Digital Producer. Thank you for uploading this. A trip down memory lane.

[@jonathanwessner3456]

Space Sweepers is so much fun. I especially love the one scene at the end.

[@electrikjimmy608]

The trailer looked so good. I'm definitely checking it out

[@jonathanwessner3456]

@@electrikjimmy608 totally worth watching, especially for the joke at the end i am talking about

Space Sweepers is probably the best sci fi film I've seen in the last 5 years or so. Freakin loved it!

[@Vivian_mash]

[@syedmamoon9718]

Agree

[@Peach-hl3hz]

Unknown was amazing!

[@lattyboo31]

This is the first time I agree with the movie line up and I've watched most of them. The ones I haven't watched are on my list.

[@Bwaatiss]

Peppermint was great. It's extra satisfying to watch if you're a Walking Dead fan because her daughter is the same actress who plays Judith Grimes.

[@mikes5637]

If the ones I haven't seen are as good as the ones I have then I will trust this recommendations list. Didnt know Inside Man had a sequel. Thoroughly recommend Peppermint for anyone wishing there was another Long Kiss Goodnight.

[@lyricsassam]

Free tip: don't watch Hold the Dark, I watched it once, it was a nightmare. So much tension built up in the entire movie just to not show what everything leads up to. Believe me, every question in this movie is unanswered.

[@Mr.DavidJones]

Thank you very much for posting. I've seen many of these but only 'Peppermint' w/ Jenifer Garner, three times.

[@SuperZero1215]

Space Sweepers I believe is the most fun movie on this list and I 100 percent agree is a hidden gem.

[@mruncletheredge]

Really good movie....

[@mirkocattaneo2743]

for me it is like if my manga or anime just became real life actors!!!

[@movemistory9600]

Only one movie i watched youre one of best youtuber And tnx

[@aasimyousaf2455]

You defintely need to do this for lesser known TV shows as well

[@ayomide1007]

We want more!

[@Wolfen443]

I saw Adrift, Unknown, Double World looks interesting. Outpost is powerful in view of the recent end of the U.S. leaving Afghanistan, Prospect is interesting too. Hold The dark is terrifying, Seven Son and Polar are complete opposites style wise but they are great in their own way. I loved Space Sweepers, it had a certain Firefly feel to it, while American Assassin is great too.

[@fatahilalim9696]

"You need to watch at least once." and that's exactly what i'm doin rn ✅

Awesome! Thats so helpful

[@ashishshah6730]

Great recommendations. Gonna check out Polar and Space Sweepers first.

"Prospect" is a sci-fi MASTERPIECE!!! And I mean it. Don't miss it people.

[@ger5565]

Mr Right was so much better than I expected. Sam Rockwell is amazing. I couldn't get 10 minutes into Space Sweepers.

Finally, a comment about that movie from someone who is not a shill.

[@two_tone_xlophone2630]

thanks for the list!

Thank you. I just watched a number of ither KZbin vids and not one gave as many good ideas as you.

Seventh Son was underrated. Guess people were tired of fantasy book adaptations at that time.

[@WirelessJoeJackson]

that movie was garbage

[@c.w.johnsonjr6374]

Glad to see The Outpost, Peppermint and Adrift on here. Lawless and Mile 22 should have been on the list as well.

Agree on Mr. Right. Don't let the Rom-Com description scare you away. It is a lot of fun. Spacesweepers is also a good watch.

11:44 Seventh Son while a fun and enjoyable film does not feature Kit Harington as main character so, if you are watching it hoping to see him you will be disappointed. He's in the film as a "Red Shirt" character for maybe 5 - 10 minutes, what you see in this video is almost all of his scenes.
