Never doubted it mate, but put simply, the matrix fight scenes are awesome.
They had to train for a long time to be able to perform the fight scenes, and at the end of the 3rd film they were good martial artists.
But i gotta agree mate, Tony Jaa is a god, he choreographed all the fight scenes himself and is about as close to a real life neo as we'll prolly get.
Another contender for best fight scene has to be the end fight from cradle 2 the grave, Jet Li is ace!

Agree that one from Ong-Bak is awesome. IIRC One guy resorts to chucking plates at him like a girl lol.
some of my favourites:
The bar / indoor fight in Crouching Tiger where the big dudes all attack her and end up wrecking the place and come back later with big red bruises and broken arms and stuff.
The orange leaves sword fight in Hero.
The street shootout in Heat.
Bar fight in From Dusk Till Dawn.
sadly enough I also liked the one in the house in Mr & Mrs Smith.
if you mean kicky / punchy fights:
One of the ones in Raging Bull is great - a while since i have seen it but the one with the lightbulb flashes in it.
Biker fight in Goodfellas.
Fight Club is hard to beat as well.
Bar fight with Bob DeNiro and Harvey Keitel in Mean Streets.
Best one in the Matrix series is probably where Trinity fights the coppers, and I agree that the Matrix should get at least a mention - the first film was unbeleivably good, whereas the other two just overbaked the same idea and created rather contrived action films.

Ong-Bak - i particulary love the fact he can defy gravity by jumping into the air doing triple knees seemingly float there for a second before finally landing.
Kickboxing FTW
Jet Li has got to be one of my all time favourites, the wee bugger is so quick.
Bruce Lee obviously, however i only wish he was around long enough to do movies with some decent coreography.
rl fighter, the russian heavy weight in UFC can't for the life of me remember his name, he decimated everyone ive seen him fight. Quite a young guy i think (quite hairy lol)

I'm a fan of historical swordsmanship, so I really enjoyed the fight scene between Liam Neeson and David Roth at the end of "Rob Roy":
No background music, no jumping on tables, no candles getting cut in half. It just seemed far more intense than most other Hollywood offerings.

The forest scene in House of the Flying Daggers was beautifully shot, and very well executed, utilizing similar flying technique to that seen previous in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. I was very impressed by this scene, and the co-ordination of the bamboo fights which accompanied it including the bamboo prison generated within.

I can tell what is terrible in any fight scene a completely ruins it for me. Thats the strange inclusion of weak hits -think the classic
'guy holding you from behind crushing you whatever and you raise your arm to hit him with the back of your clenched fist'
You guys know what i mean - i hate anything like this in any fight movies its so unrealistic especially when they howl and stagger back :(
remember Manny 'the man' from Brotherhood of the Wolf he just booted everyone in the sternum and they went flying, it worked cos i really looked like he had just put alot of force behind it.
I like to feel the hits, and believe that yeah that would not only work but hurt like hell.
The only exception to this is the complex coreography with eastern martial arts films were its more a dance than fight. watching the leg movements and the incredibly control is breathtaking.
Backhanding someone aint :)

The best fight is in the german agent's home in Bourne Supremacy, hands down. The dramatic use of window blinds is what makes this scene a winner. It is so cool leveled, you don't ever think "wow, cool stuntwork" when you see it.
Best shootout is the last desperate attempt at the money in The Way of the Gun. The gunplay is cleverly coordinated and logical, has an awesomely slow pace and believable outcome. It is stomach churning, exciting and very very compelling. Every serious drama where guns are fired (perhaps a drama about cops?) should seek inspiration in this film.
Anyone thinking Matrix is exceptional for anything but pioneering "bullet time" deserves to be shot in the face with a bean bag. Really, the only thing that makes Matrix what it is is the technological breakthroughs (Bullet time and virtual cinematography). Back when the first film was new, I really thought the lobby shootout was awesome because it was unlike anything I had seen in motion, but now when I rewatch it I can't help but to think "this is the scene where the franchise ended, they killed the story and made it a no brainer with crappy action and pathetic dialogue". The "kung fu" scenes are poor wire work crap, except for the Dojo showdown scene which is soaked with style and good camerawork. The Reloaded fight against the clones is very inventive and visually pleasing too.

The scene in "Hero" When the guy with the spear fights. Theres the music from the player and the drops of water that just seem to make it an even more impressive fight scene.
Something about how that guy handled the spear and made its elacity usefull in combat was amazing to me as well.

Nah, I think the first fight scene, right at the beginning of the movie, is better.

Two blokes taking it in turns to hit each other for what seems like several hours.
Fantastic scenery.

Ong Bak was pretty cool, But i have always had a soft spot for the opening bit in Nico.
Also Romeo must die was pretty cool fight secne wise as well.
The opening fight in blade and the end fight in blade are pretty cool as well (loved the little boomarang thing in the first fight).
For shear over the top the big fight in the club in the Crow as well. Can't remember the name of the other brandon lee movie i thought had good fights in it though...

Brotherhood of the wolf: Good movie
The end of ScarFace
Last Samurai: Tom Cruise actually was bloody brilliant and it was damn realistic for the most part.
Advent Children: Sephiroth vs. Cloud- It put to end the entire debat of who was the better swordsman and it wasn't the spikey haired emo punk.
Jet Li vs. Mel Gibson-Lethal Weapon 4- At the very end,extremly well done in my book.
In my opinion the best fight scenes are believeable ones but every once in awhile you will see something of such visual mastery that you just have to respect if not love the work the graphics engineers have made.

Best fights I've seen, especially for realism (well, as realistic as movie fights can get) is Bruce Lee vs Chuck Norris in Way of the Dragon or just about any of the fight scenes in Fist of Fury.

The guy with the spear was played by Donnie Yen. Bout a decade or so earlier he and Jet also did another great fight scene. LOTS of em; Once Upon a Time in China II. The last half hour is basically all non-stop fighting. Best fights were with the bamboo sticks, and the finale with the cloth whip thingamajig. Proof that Chinese pwn Manchurians

The gun fights in Hard boiled.
The combat in the series "Rome" was very good. the scene with the two protagonists in the arena was better than the fights in gladiator IMHO.
"They Live" is a top film
For wacky over the top fights I have to rate "Zu warriors at the magic mountain" and "Mr Vampire"

Jackie Chan "Who Am I"
One of the worst Movies I've ever seen (in that the supporting actors were absolutely awful, particularly that report chick, omg woeful, she musta shagged the director)
Anyway, Fight scene on the roof of some building, Jackie vs 2 other dudes, one Chinese one Dutch (I think, looks like he does TKD). Granted I dont watch many of the older fight movies (Bruce Lee, JCVD, Chuck , etc) but that scene is one of my favs.

You know the fight scene with the TKD guy was with a wooden leg. The original footage with real TKD was way too slow for the stun. In RL fights, legs are damaging but very slow vs hands, also quiet predictable.

Legs are a viable option in a fight and can often turn it massively, although i agree that the use of hands for striking and control are much more flexible and quick. Leg work is essential - using kicks as one offs is a major no-no they should be placed within combinations.
Sparring with some very good kickboxers and you learn very quickly how fast legs can be.

Sparring with some very good kickboxers and you learn very quickly how fast legs can be.
Depends. Only viable time to use legs are when stances are very low and up to level to the eyes of the target. When that happens, the reaction time of the target will be slow because the target cant see incoming hands or legs movements. I find using legs on a target's soft spot between the legs often get the best result. I may be wrong.

Well did buy (I know I know) a dvd with Chuck Norris called Invasion U.S.A. and now while it is not great the fightscene... it is atleast hillarious.
When the terrorist are tricked to enter that federal building they all run (probably between 50 and 100 terrorists) inside the building shooting around themself, not really aiming and ****... just shooting and they all move in a big "blob".
I suppose you got to see the scene to see how it is hillarious.
Think I have never laughed so much of a moviescene as when I saw that.
Now best fightscene ... I kinda liked Star Wars episode 3, the opening scene where all the battleships where shooting at eachother!!!
Here at the cinema we had just got a new soundsystem and it was awesome!!!!

The fight in the subway mens room in "The Warriors".
Best described as a finely choreographed ballet, rather than a true fight scene.
The fight with the Baseball Fury's in the park isn't bad either.

Wow, someone else shares my favorite.
I've always thought the fight between John Cusack and that small gentleman by the lockers in Grosse Pointe Blank has to be, hands down, the most brutally intense fight scene ever. No flash, no bravado, just two professional murderers trying their damnedest to kill each other.
I'm also pretty partial to the opening scene of Blade. |

Just started watching Project A Part 2 where Jackie Chan and co. have gone to a club to arrest the gang boss and find themselves heavily outnumbered. Some fantastic bruising fights there.
Also Zatoichi, the recent remake by Takeshi Kitano is awesome for its sword fights. Just watch the scene with two thugs testing their brand new sword on a supposedly harmless old blind guy!
I have a massive collection of Chinese/Japanese films with Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, Jet Li, Sammo Hung (he sure can move for a big guy!), and many others and hardly watch any hollywood movies so much anymore as the fight scenes and stunt work is often covered up by bad CGI. Asian films have got it just right.

Bourne Indentity. I thought there were some great fight scenes in here. The one between the bourne and the assasin who broke into his house was class I thought.
The fight scene in grosse point blank I wasnt expecting, but it was damn fine. The fights in bourne identity reminded me of it.
Bourne supremacy fights scenes disappointend me tho, as they use that dodgy cutting technique which while may make fights look fast paced, doesnt let you see any of the action really.
Watch Bourne Indentity tho, class film

Out of 5 new Asian movies that I have come across per calendar year, I may be lucky to get treated to a nice movie. Funny thing is, some Asian countries that are just about to enter the big world of film making like Thailand can make decent movies without too much special effects.
You have definitely got to agree that older shows like Star Wars using miniature models have much better production than some movies using computerised effects that we see today. It feels so realistic back then compared to now.

And once you finished watching Ong-Bak,(AND if you like it) wait for the next movie by the same actor, called TOM_YUM GOONG (might spelt it wrongly) and watch martial arts fighting at its finest. TBH the story line is pretty basic but that doesnt denounce the fact that the fighting scenes is awesome

Still one of my favourite fight scenes is from Akira Kurosawa's "The Hidden Fortress" with Toshiro Mifune's character against the other general. Love that scene, a lot of tension.
There were a few great scenes in Equilibrium too, something a bit different
Reasons why I DONT LIKE ONG BAK! (gasp)
The fight scenes are boring, theres no struggle in the fights at all. All the fights are a picnic for Tony Jaa, he's like a Kick Boxing terminator. its BORING and stupid.
You never get the impression that he might actually be in trouble or out classed. There's no rooting for him as the underdog because hes virtually never in danger. It's just watching him beating the crap out of someone and waiting for the forgone conclusion.
The best bits in Ong Bak were when he was being chased through the streets doing his Jackie Chan impression.
Anybody who mentions The Transporter films should be ashamed :P The second one was atrociously bad.

You're not listening to me. WATCH ONG-BAK NOW. No wires, no special effects, no CGI, no stunt doubles (besides one 3 second scene), full contact (proper full contact) martial arts through-out. Rubbish story, but omg the fighting .

Bruce Lee=God Him vs Kareem Abduhl Jabar (wrong spelling) was pretty good. Anything with bruce lee is good.
Also, Timmy Vs. Jimmy in southpark was pretty good.

There have been many great fight scenes in movies clear back to the 50's like the first part of the bar fight in the western "Shane" but gotta go with the bar fight in "Once were Warriors" as a representation of how to get it done!

Originally by: Numpty above me
like uberly the sux
Then how come so many films have copied and mimicked parts of it?
And they used so much wire work because 90% of the stuff they did couldn't have been done without it.
Go train with a group of martial arts masters for 6 months, 18 hours a day, and then try telling me that what your doing sucks.
Oh opinion 4TW!
Please realize: just because lots of people like it doesn't mean it's good. Take That sucked, but there were a lot of boy bands made after their success. The Matrix movies pale in comparison to anything by Bruce Lee or John Woo (pre-Hollywood), mainly because of the lack of authenticity. While it's cool to see someone flying through the air firing guns while cartwheeling with trench coat flying, the mind is overwhelmed by the amount of "oh my god wow" stuff going on. Watch Hard Boiled, Enter the Dragon, or Ong Bak - the fight scenes are done in a highly artistic manner, yet do not rely on overly superhuman characters. Every single bullet in Hard Boiled is important. In the Matrix, the mass amounts of ammunition expended render the gunfights somewhat inane. In Enter the Dragon and Ong Bak, every punch and every kick makes contact, big time. As in, makes you wince. When Tony Jaa slams someone with his elbow, you can see the force of the blow merely in the movements of the bodies. In the Matrix films, you either have hyperfast martial arts that have no mass behind them, or you have way overdone power hits (the final fight between Neo and Smith in the third movie) while just get plain stupid.
Anyway, my current favorite is http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-8514518157668120764 from the same director as Ong Bak. Although every gun battle in Hard Boiled is just exquisite.
