Re: Favorite action sequences

[elaminator]

(Everyone's probably tired of hearing me talk about it by now but) Harry Hart's church scene in Kingsman is seriously one of the coolest things I've ever seen. (Dat clip change! Jumping from the pew! Good god, every bit of it was perfect.) Eggsy in Valentine's bunker was also fantastic (This bit, omg.), and Gazelle was a powerhouse.

Hit Girl's fights in the first Kick-Ass (haven't seen 2). I wasn't the biggest fan of the film outside of Hit Girl, but she made that movie worth seeing (multiple times).

The Bride vs Gogo Yubari and the Crazy 88 + O-Ren Ishii in Kill-Bill. The whole damn thing.

Matt Murdock pulverizing a buttload of criminals in Daredevil (in only one take).

Neo vs Agent Smith('s) in The Matrix Reloaded. It's ridiculous but fun.

The section of Winter Soldier where Steve, Nat and Sam are ambushed on the highway. Steve vs Bucky (that knife fight, unf) will stay with me for a long time.

Blink and Quicksilver in X-Men: Days of Future Past. Blink was all around badass but Quicksilver was no doubt the highlight of the film for me. Rarely are action sequences so delightfully funny and quirky.

Inception had plenty of great ones, but the revolving corridor is probably my favorite. (Predictable, I know.)

Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi vs. Darth Maul in Star Wars: The Phantom Menace. (TPM gets a lot of hate from SW fans, but I adored Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan and Maul was damn cool.)

Basically everything Kahlan does in Legend of the Seeker. (She is so delicious with twin daggers and slow mo, and when she goes into the Con Dar...)

Sun being a total wrecking ball in Sense8, especially the first time she helps Capheus. (The scene where Sun, Will and Capheus help Nomi escape is equally amazing.)

The train scene (with young!Indiana) and motorcycle scene (with Indy and Henry) from Indiana Jones.

Person of Interest is filled with these, between Root and Shaw and Reese. I wouldn't even know where to begin.

There are so, so many...

If I was going to include video games we would be here all day, but escaping the ship in Uncharted 3 was incredible, as was Raiden jumping from missile to missile and running up buildings during the first Metal Gear fight in Metal Gear Rising, then owning both Metal Gear EXCELSUS and Armstrong at the end (Raiden does his best Kano impression), The entire Suicide Mission in Mass Effect 2, the crazy final boss in Bayonetta, defeating The Boss in Metal Gear Solid 3 (sobs), and escaping the Halo via Warthog in Halo 3.

I agree with all of these but I wanted to call out one specific Person of Interest fight scene in particular - the one where Reese just walks into the US Marshal's office and just casually beats the shit out of everyone. This one - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h-MsxmB0Y8g

It's just so impressive how casual he is about it all.

Also, this was the scene that I used on its own to get one of my friends into the show, so that's also good.

I love how casual everyone is with their violence in POI. Especially Reese...he looks downright bored sometimes, lol. The scene where he meets Bear and is all "I'll get my workout in for the day" made me laugh.

Him punching the last officer in this scene is hilarious.

I also REALLY love anytime The Machine helps Root or Reese take on a crowd of people. That big gunfight in the hotel (?) with Root was amazing.

came here to post church scene, was not disappointed.

Re: Favorite action sequences

[elaminator]

I only saw Kingsman recent(ish), so I'm pleased that so many people like it! (Or at least the Church scene. Which was admittedly so good that even if you hated everything else about the film, it would still be worth watching. To me, anyway.)

I literally came here to post the Kingsman church scene LOL.

Re: Favorite action sequences

[elaminator]

God bless that film. Seriously, bless it.

I am so impressed by the choreography in that movie, and Colin Firth did an amazing job on his stunts.

And what a perfect use of music.

AYRT

Best film I've seen in a while. And that's saying something, b/c I can't really stand most movies, these days.

Re: Favorite action sequences

[elaminator]

I'm probably much easier to please, but Kingsman still stood out for me in a way no film has in quite a while. I don't rewatch films as often as I once did, but since buying it on Blu-ray a month ago I've watched it three times. It's a hell of a lot of fun. (And the cast is likable, which is so important.)
