With the Jackie Chan/Jet Li movie "The Forbidden Kingdom" opening this month,It got me thinking about fight scenes.
So I was wondering what people thought was the greatest fight scene ever filmed?
It could be something short and brutal like Bourne or grand and intricate like Police Story.

The best fighting scenes I recently watched were in The Bourne Ultimatum. Great fighting was in Bruce Lee's Enter The Dragon. Aside from that I'm not a big fan of brawl films.
River Tam's bar brawl in Serenity.
"Miranda?"
I'm watching Ong-Bak at the moment and it's got a lot of cool fight scenes. The main guy's just smashed open another guy's bike helmet with his knee. While he was wearing it obviously
Edit: forget that, now he's just put his elbow straight through someone's skull
All of the "Fight Club" fights :D
If a movie is just about fighting ,the fights become boring.Quote:

I did like the fight in Serenity for it's elegance .Summer Glau is a trained dancer and it showed.
I am agreeQuote:

'nuff said. It's the longest fight scene in cinema without the camera changing scenes/cutting. Its a steady shot from start to finish as the main guy kicks more ass than I've seen on 5 separate floors (the camera follows him as he fights).
I wonder what happened when a person messed up, redoing all that would be tiresome!
I read that a couple of the stunt men were actually hurt and they just kept rolling.Heartless bastards.
But like you said if they had to keep reshooting that scene by the end of the day nobody would have had a leg to stand on.
Not one shot but impressive.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=65IS3Rx-p3o
ong Bak has the best muai tai ..:)
Hell yea! That was an awesome fight scene, loved the way the camera moved around and the look on the guy's face when he pulled the trigger only to find out he's out of bullets hahahaQuote:

King Kong and the T-rex's in the ravine.
the Matrix ones are pretty cool
The Last Samurai :) fight scenes are awsome
Tony Jaa in the movie The Protector had the best fight scenes.
So any of those my pick
i love shut em up movie it's very good action
I really liked the fight scene on the second matrix movie. I think it was the second fight, where Neo fight hundreds of agents. I also liked every fight scene on the protector.
I like all Fight movie
there may be good story & there are great photo by directors
