Exactly What It Says on the Tin. What do you think are the best fight scenes involving nothing but good ol' close-quarters-combat?

I'll start with my personal favorite from my all-time favorite movie:

Nothing beats the Subway Fight from The Matrix imo. Excellent fight choreography, strong acting (even from Keanu Reeves), right amount of emotions, just everything. waii

The Raid: Redemption. All of it, the gunfight, the hole drop scene, the 6v1 through the building, Jaka vs. Mad Dog, the brothers vs. Mad Dog, everything. It's by far one of the most intense and effective movies of its kind.

But as a sample...hmm. Lemme remember how this works. Nope that's not it. They've reformatted Youtube video URLs and not the markup help.

Ah well, old-fashioned link it is.

If this is only gonna involve fight scenes from movies, it might be best to relocate it to the Live-Action Film subforum.

Of course, nothing actually specifies that, it's just we've nominated only live-action ones so far, so perhaps it would be best not to.

[up][up][up][up] then I nominate the fight at the end of the cowboy bebop movie. Unlinked both to prevent spoilers and also because I have no idea how to do that.

Yeah, you're probably right. I'll create a new topic over there.
