First time I'll be voting against an M:I film, but Winter Soldier.

If it was either of the other M:I films from last decade... But it's Ghost Protocol, so my vote goes to Winter Soldier.

Winter Soldier is the first participant from the MCU to advance to the Elite 8, dealing Mr. Cruise back to back losses. Will one of it's colleagues join them? Find out next. Next battle up shortly.  |

Best Action Movies of the Decade
The Sweet Sixteen
West Regional Semi-Finals
Match 6: Region 3
The Raid: Redemption
Release Date: 2012Directed by: Gareth EdwardsRT/Metacritic Score- 86/73Making Their Case:
It's a surge of adrenaline that connects a strong protagonist and story to martial arts moves - traditional Indonesian silat - that are well beyond business as usual.
- Peter Howell, Toronto Star
Promotional Material:
VersusThe Avengers Release Date: 2012
Directed by: Joss Whedon
RT/Metacritic Score: 92/69
Making Their Case: It's a first-class production all around, from the acting to the 3-D special effects to the touches of wit throughout. It delivers, in grand style, the thing we demand most from a comic-book movie: fun.
-Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times
Promotional Material:
My Vote: The Raid: Redemption

The Raid.
The first Avengers was cool at the time but doesnt really hold up as the best action-wise.

That answer, folks, is a resounding no as The Avengers get smoked. The Raid is the first International picture in the long and storied history of this tournament to make the Elite 8. The West Finals are set. 4 participants remain for only 2 spots. Next battle up shortly.  |

I'm not going by that "as an action movie" logic, so Dawn of the Planet of the Apes.
