What's the best movie fight scene this century?
« on: March 26, 2023, 11:19:36 am »
The Matrix was released last century and used CGI technology.

Since then some of the best cinematic fight scenes have actually been low-tech, high-tension stylistic moments.

The slippery oil scene in The Transporter;
The elevator scene in Captain America;
The bus scene in Nobody.

What fight scene sticks with you? And should with millions for decades.
Help others, especially animals. Say what you think, be considerate of others. Appreciate more than deprecate. Teach well, jump on teachable moments. Enjoy Korea as it is, without changing it. Dwell! Yet, at times, change your life for the better. "The most important [thing] is to have a good day."

The Raid: Redemption
The machete gang scene. The movie, really, is just one big continuous fight scene.

That 8 minute action scene in Children of Men that was shot all in one take. An incredible (literally!) piece of cinematography!

One of the greatest movies ever put to film. The tank shelling towards the end of that scene? It's insane.

As for fight? Anton Chigurgh coming into the hotel where Llewelyn is staying and unscrewing the lights? Then Llewelyn jumping out the window and them shooting it out in the streets of the small town? Amazing.
And if my thought-dreams could be seen
They’d probably put my head in a guillotine
