Celluloid Zombie writes: Violence is a funny thing. Few of us actually enjoy participating in it, but most of us will at some point thoroughly enjoy watching it in a movie. Ah, the magical catharsis of cinema!
The movies are replete with scenes of battle. Fight scenes are the meat and potatoes of the action genre, and most thrillers will either end on one or throw a couple in somewhere. Picking only ten was always going to leave this list with a whole heap of contenders unfairly cast aside, but there’s no way I’m going to sit here and write fifty of these bastards.
So here are my favourite ten. For the sake of making the choice easier, I’ve left out battle scenes between entire armies. Perhaps another time. Please feel free to add your own top ten, if you have one, or simply chastise me for omitting your single favourite. Maybe we can settle it outside.
Dark Matter Review: Although some of its runtime might be quite dense, there are moments in this sci-fi series that leaves you at the edge of your seat.
Down The Rabbit Hole Review: The movie has few, if any, moments that make you laugh, and it feels like it was rushing to its conclusion.
Beautiful Rebel Review: Biography on Gianna Nannini's life is a hit and a miss.
We would have to take it outside...what happened to Kill Bill 1 and the Crazy 88?
There should be at least 2 or 3 Bruce Lee fights included. I did like that Star Wars Episode 1's Darth Maul scene made it though.
YES! Cheers for including They Live. That movie is one of my guilty favorites from the 80's. It is so utterly ridiculous—the dialogue and the action spring to mind (lol for mentioning Piper's extremely LONG street fight with Keith David!)—but Carpenter makes it all work.
I loved the musice they kept playing on that movie "They Live" It was just so cool. Great ending too.
