I have many favorites. For your consideration, a thread:

Atomic Blonde (2017), the entirety of the stairwell scene, but especially the last 3 minutes for depicting the complete exhaustion of the fight https://twitter.com/ChuckWendig/status/1249865178038054915

The Villainess (2017), this entire 6 min. opening scene, but really just about every fight throughout. (The Black Widow movie I always wanted btw)

Kingsman (2014), the church scene brawl remains one of the most entertaining 5 min fight scenes ever. Also, “Free Bird”

Winter Soldier (2014), Bucky vs. Cap street fight. I know the elevator scene is a fan favorite, but that knife flip tho

Civil War (2016), Black Widow vs. Crossbones & his goons. A two-parter and one of my favorite scenes of Widow throwing down

Mission Impossible: Fallout (2018), the bathroom fight. Yes, Cavill charging up his guns, but more importantly, Laing Yang successfully avoiding being body-slammed before throat-punching Cavill was *chef kiss*

Upgrade (2018), underrated movie with some truly inventive fight sequences. Particularly this one that ends with such a bang, I yelled out loud

Birds of Prey (2020) Evidence Room fight, aka “101 uses for a baseball bat & who needs kneecaps?”

The Raid (2012), Drug Room fight, 3 and half minutes of intensity with a killer knife fight in the middle of it all

Hotel Artemis (2018), Nice’s stand. Short but sweet with bonus points for intensity, resourcefulness & showing complete exhaustion

Haywire (2011), hotel fight. Technical delight to watch. Silent, no music, just one line of dialogue. And a beautiful front kick through a glass door

Oldboy (2003), corridor fight. Single shot, exhaustive, dramatic & brutal

Hanna (2011), container park scene. Part chase, part fight, great escalation & another sweet knife fight. (Honorable Mention to the subway fight)

Black Panther (2018), Casino fight. Great from start to finish, but MVP goes to Danai Gurira as Okoye destroying these goons

Speaking of - Goon (2011), final fight. Just straight up brawling on the ice in skates. Brutal & dramatic culmination for a sleeper movie that really surprised me

Alright, I’ve got more but that’s all I have time for now. Big love to all the stunt & fight choreographers as well as stunt actors out there. I see you & there should be Oscar categories for all your hard work
