To answer your question (did I miss that or was it edited in?) I'd recommend Fury Road straight away if you've not seen it, then going back for Ip Man, Guns Akimbo, Kung Fu Hustle, Psycho Goreman, Black Magic M-66, and of course the original action film, Seven Samurai. Not all pure "action" flicks, but all are examples of action packed cinema that don't leave any storytelling by the wayside.

Kurosawa is a good counterpoint for sure. Haven't seen Guns Akimbo, Psycho Goreman, or Black Magic M-66. I'll keep my eye out for those. Thanks!
