Top 5 fight one on one fight scenes. Hollywood Version.

So I might as well start with a nice simple top 5 list. And what better way than top 5 fight scenes.

And I am going to do these in no particular order because well its half one in the morning and putting them in order would take me a lot longer.

You want me to say it?? I can't be fucking arsed, there.

1. Neo vs Agent Smith - Revolutions

I don't care what anyone says I still love all three of the Matrix movies. I remember the wait between the original and reloaded. I remember watching open jawed at the trailer for it and although one could argue that the fight scenes when compared to those of professional martial artists they are just someone not as impressive. Maybe this is true but I don't care.

Neo vs Agent Smith the final confrontation is beyond epic. Just the sound of the music is enough to get you all pumped up. It is awesome.

2. Blade vs Nomak

I love this fight scene. It just feel's so... powerful. Each and every single blow just feel's so impactive. And although Blade does get the living shit beaten out of him, yeah you know he was always going to win.
I think Blade 2 also is massively underrated. Perhaps I over estimate peoples hate of it. but most of the comments I recall of it are people hating the film. And they are all WRONG.

3. John Preston vs Brandt - Equilibrium (second fight)

Ok yes I know you can barely call it a fight. But I think that's just part of its charm. Everyone is expecting this big epic final showdown vs the guy that fought Preston to a draw earlier on. But Preston was beginning to feel then, he had not come to terms with his emotions and also didn't really have anything to fight for.

But as soon as he utters the words "Not without incident" you know everyone who goes against him is properly fucked. And Brandt has the front half of his face removed.

4. Achilles vs Hector

Everyone saw this fight coming from a mile away. I looked forward to it and it did not disappoint. Almost had me believing for a second that there was the possibility of Achilles losing too. Ok so I really knew he could't actually lose it but still.

And its weird too that its almost hard to want either of them to win. There is no real reason to hate either character, I mean Achilles in spite of everything is basically a pretty decent guy, and Hector too.

5. Ethan Hunt vs Sean Ambrose - Mission Impossible 2

Never let it be said that John Woo doesn't know how to make a good fight scene. (I don't know why anyone would say that come to think of it, Just felt like a good opening line)

This scene is so over the top. I mean come on, it starts with two moterbikes colliding in mid air and exploding. I just love the insane amount of punishment Ethan and Sean dish out to each other in this fight scene. Its enough to have killed most men twice over with change to spare. Some people hate it because of this, some people like it in spite of this, I my self love it because of it.

I am aware at this point i h at I seem to have gone very much Hollywood fight scenes. I think I will even change the list title to specifically state this as I kind of think Bruce Lee and Tony Jaa and Jet Li type fights should have their own list.

So there you have it, my list of five of my most favourite fight scenes from Hollywood movies. Feel free to leave comments. In fact I would really like some feedback.

I am also happy to take on idea's for other lists or topics to cover.
