I am not sure they fall under the traditional definition of "action" but Kurosawa's Ran and Kagemusha both are rich in battle action and images that is breathtaking. And if you love images and tremendous quiet beauty - look at the Dreams. I am not sure, however, how good the DVD transfers are. The Ran I have is mediocre.

For images so thick that you can't even cut them with the samurai sword - there is none better that any of Greenaway's masterpieces. If you only have to get one - get the Cook. However, for the extra-super-ultimate balls-to-the-wall indulgence look no further than the Prospero's Book. If you can sail through that one (and it is beautiful beyond belief) consider yourself a real man.
