What Movies Have The Best Fight Scenes?
I have been watching tons of Kung Fu films recently and find it very frustrating finding ones with good fight scenes. So far, Rumble In The Bronx is by far my favorite for mindless Kung Fu (especially since random objects used as weapons which is awesome). The problem is the IMDB ratings and reviews haven't been particularly helpful in finding more like it. It often sticks me with stuff like Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon or Kill Bill which use excessive scene cuts and special effects to make it look pretty without showing any martial arts skill. Or New Police Story which is a great Jackie Chan Movie but doesn't really have much Kung Fu. Then there is Project A and some of the Bruce Lee stuff which have lots of Kung Fu but lacks the complex choreography and difficult sequences of RITB and some other newer stuff. Then there are the movies with the stunts, car crashes and explosions instead of quality fight sequences such as Mr. Nice Guy. Fights in that movie were so boring.
The good stuff I have seen is Jet Li's Fist of Legend (except for the fast forwarding parts), the final fight in Gorgeous and the entire The Legend of Drunken Master movie. Fearless also seemed good even though it's very Hollywood. I'm looking for fight scenes like these or like in RITB but its been a lot of frustration so far. Does anyone have any good recommendations?
