I'm hoping that JSP will be able to help me out by suggesting some of the action scenes you like the most. What I'm really looking for is soundtracks that fit the most exciting action sequences, but I figure it makes sense to search for the action scenes first and that will lead me to good music.

The criteria that it must meet..

- Movie released after 1990.
- Movie must be from Europe or North America.
- Action sequence itself must not be overly violent. Roughly PG-13 level is good.
- Prefer to have minimal dialogue in the scene, allowing for more focus on the music.
- No lyrics in the music.
- Prefer electronic music over instrumentals. A mix of both would do just fine.
- Prefer the music not to have heavy bass.

So far I'm working with the content from Matrix Reloaded and the Requiem for a Dream theme (Lux Aeterna). If you think of something that's better action scenes and/or music than these, please share. Thanks!

car chase scene from Ronin comes to my mind

Overall the movie is PG 16 but it has nothing to do with this scene

Is there a specific scene you are referring to? Or does the movie only have 1 action sequence?

This, and the action in Ronin is a lot more brutal than most movies because you see a lot of innocent civilians get killed from stray bullets. This makes the violence much more realistic than other movies.

District B13 is full of scenes like that. Here's a couple

Though it's a shame you're only looking from Europe or NA. You're depriving yourself of what I think are the best action scenes out there.
