You have to admit that there have been many great films down the years involving fighting and so this is why I have decided to discuss this.
Below is my top 5 fight films in order:
1. The Matrix
Yes I know there were lots of technical aids for these scenes but the actual fighting was superb. Well choreographed and looking good. My favourite scene is in the training Dojo when Morpheous and Neo get it on. Some of the moves are unbelievable and the fight lasts a good long while. They took 5 months training for this film and these scenes, it certainly paid off. The best kung fu action scenes since Bruce Lee.
2. Gladiator
A real attempt this one, as it was always going to be hard to make this kind of film. My best fight moments from this one are the scene in Zuchabaar when maximus kills 5 enemies single handedly, finishing with a brutal decapitation, and the final battle, not so much for the fight itself as for the sheer passion of Russell Crowes performance.
The film also has several other stunning fight scenes, especially the first battle in Germania, where some real blood flies!
3. Enter The Dragon
I could have named 5 Bruce Lee flicks here and there'd be little argument. The best martial artist of many years kicks and punches loadsa baddies here. Simply too many good fight scenes to mention, it may look dated now but they are still superb martial artists.
4. Fight Club
For sheer brutality, the scenes in Fight Club were viscious to say the least, but none of the rousing fight scenes can match the immortal scene where, as Brad Pitt put it "I want you to hit me..as hard as you can" and Ed Norton responds with a slap.
5. Rocky
We all know that if any real boxer was hit as many times as Stallone in the Rocky films, he'd need sponging from the ring. But this was Hollywood and therefore they could make it as brutal as they liked. Stallones battles in the Rocky films were always passionate and deadly, and none ,ore so than his tumultuous battles with Mr T and Dolph Lundgren.

Anyhow, the nominations are (in no particular order):
Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon
Raging Bull
Seven Samurai
The Killer (John Woo and Chow Yun Fat, a delmightful combo if I may say so myself.)
And in a way you can see Chinatownas a fight movie. Actually I don't care Roman Polanski is GOD!
