    • 'Face/Off' (1997) Starring: John Travolta, Nicolas Cage, and Joan Allen. One of the funniest action movies of all time, Face/Off is the greatest movie John Woo directed in America, and it's not even close.
    • 'Hard Target' (1993) Starring: Jean-Claude Van Damme, Arnold Vosloo, and Lance Henriksen. Action movie die-hards might've known John Woo's name before 1993, but those who weren't aware of his sensibilities before he (briefly) left the Hong Kong film industry sure became aware thanks to Hard Target.
    • 'Mission: Impossible II' (2000) Starring: Tom Cruise, Thandiwe Newton, and Ving Rhames. The second movie in the long-running Mission: Impossible series, this installment is often seen - perhaps not unfairly - as the weakest of the seven so far.
    • 'Broken Arrow' (1996) Starring: John Travolta, Christian Slater, and Samantha Mathis. Those who like their action movies as bombastic and ridiculous as possible will likely have a blast with Broken Arrow, which might just be John Woo's goofiest American movie (it has some tough competition though).
