If you don't know what a guy movie is, just read on. You'll get the idea.
My all-time favorite has to be Reservoir Dogs. That was such a completely f*cking badass movie, and it is without question, the most perfect guy movie ever.
Also making the list would be:
Bravehart
Goodfellas
Scarface
Taxi Driver
The Longest Yard
The Outlaw Josey Wales
I could go on and on. Got any others you want to add?
Anything Clint Eastwood pre-1995. It ended when he started doing that Bridges of Madison County girly crap.
True. Very true.
How about Death Wish? That was pretty badass too.
Enter The Dragon.
HaaaaaaYAH!!!
All the Terminator and Predator movies. Violent death everywhere!
Agreed.
What about the Evil Dead series. (I love the fight scene between Ash and his hand in no.II
)
Love the new sig. by the way Kicky.
Did you lose a bet over a chess match or something?
The best movie in this genre I can think of is "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly," although "Death Wish" was great too. Other good examples of the genre are "Josie Wales," "Rio Bravo," "Pale Rider," and "Shane."
The last three contained some romance (with Angie Dickinson, Carrie Snodgress, and Jean Arthur), but I think that they were still basically "guy pictures."

Damn Craven.
Oh, and I agree with you on the Evil Dead movies. That hand fight was hilarious.
All the Bond movies! Especially the Brosnan ones.
Alien
Aliens
Conan the Barbarian
Fight Club
Akira (80's Manga film)
Star Wars 4-6
Hopefully I'm not the only one to think this, but Pulp Fiction has pretty much everything that a guy could want in a movie.
Pulp Fiction rocked, and although not a Tarantino production, though he wrote the screenplay, True Romance is one of my all-time faves. While not in the action/splatter vein (no pun intended, heh heh) I would have to put Glengarry Glen Ross on the man list, as a ruthless portrayal of the **** the working man goes through to make a buck. In fact, I'm almost positive that Gil the salseman from The Simpsons is based on the Jack Lemmon character. Oh, and we can't forget Rob Zombie's House of 1000 Corpses.

I beg to differ. The Connery ones were way more 'guy'.
I knew it....thanks for the link smog. Still a wicked movie.
Stumble It!
