Great and awesome list Honorable Mention: Running Scared (1986) Starring Billy Crystal and the late great Gregory Hines. The chemistry between them two was awesome in this film with great quotable lines, great action sequence and a young Jimmy Smits and Joe Pantoliano with a great 80's Soundtrack. Definitely an underrated buddy cop film that doesn't get a lot of love.

Also, the third movie had one joke that I laughed at. It's blue light. What does it do? It turns blue. Therefore it's a comedy franchise.

I think Hudson Hawk was underrated. The story was a bit goofy, but the flow of the editing was much better than it was given credit for when it came out. Another one that deserved to be on the list was Fifth Element. The story and editing was flawless and the dialog was crisp in how it was stitched scenes together.

Scanned through this to see how many female-led Action/Comedy movies are shown. Reminded me that they are kinda scarce beyond 'Spy' and 'The Heat'. I can see why 'Hot Pursuit' did not make the list, though I like it a little more than others. I hope we can get more entries. I'd love to watch Florence Pugh and Sofia Boutella as a duo. Or Andrea Navedo and Dascha Polanco. Or Danai Gurira and DeWanda Wise.

Four omissions : Red Notice, The Gentlemen, Sherlock Holmes and Snatch. Guy Ritchie is doing a fabulous job mixing comedy and action. Jackie Chan has two in your top 5 and that is impressive. Arnold’s three should all be moved up. About 3 in your top 15 are highly questionable.
