Best one on one movie fights?

Arnold vs Predator has to be up there. I'll add more as I think of them.

 

It’s not one on one but I really liked that Batman versus multiple thugs fight in Batman Versus Superman.

I also like the agent versus agent fights in the first three Bourne films.

 

One of the Bourne films had a fantastic ATG fight. Can’t remember which one it was.

Bond vs Red Grant in From Russia with Love is a classic.

 

Roddy Piper vs Keith David in "They Live".

 

the scene in the lift in drive was pretty fucked up. Great film

Also the stabbing death in saving private Ryan

 

Liam Neeson vs. Arthritis

Pick any movie he's done in the last 10 years.

 

Excellent choice. Hard to beat that:


The fight vs OddJob in Goldfinger is pretty good if not too over-the-top dramatic:


Of more modern movies, one of the best one-on-one realistic fights is in Grosse Pointe Blank (with great tune):




ooo who said Arnold v Predator? oool

 

I did, fuckface.

Doesn't have to be martial arts related just a good one on one fight.

Superman vs Zod in Man of Steel is another one.

But come on, a good fight?

500lb alien Predator v 250lb Special Forces guy, the latter of who got absolutely smashed...

 

Achilles vs Hector in Troy was pretty cool.

 

Eastern Promises Russian vs two Chechens. Technically a two on one but he takes one out pretty swiftly and it becomes a one on one. Loses points for lack of realism, two Chechens would maul a single Russian.

Marathon Man Roy Scheider hotel room fight.

 

Old one from The Deep (1977):

 

Daniel Laruso vs Johnny is an ATG fight.

Dunno if sporting confrontations count though.

 

If you wanna talk superhero fights then peep the following:

Steve Rogers vs Batroc
Captain America vs iron man
Wolverine vs lady deathstrike
T’Challa vs Bucky Barnes (when T’Challa was minus his suit)

 

Richard Gere vs Louis Gossett Jnr at the end of An Officer and a Gentleman (perhaps the most underrated film in history )

 

Hilary Swank vs. The Corner Stool in "Million Dollar Baby"

Hilary Swank vs. The Ghost of Ralph Macchio in "The Next Karate Kid"

Hilary Swank vs. Reactionary Midwestern Phobias in "Boys Don't Cry"

Hilary Swank vs. The Center Of The Earth in "The Core"


I can go on and on.....................

 

You’re a thread killing cuuuuuuuuunt!

 

Good one. Still root for Lou Gossett whenever I run across that flick. For a little while there, Gere was great at playing the super-cunty asshole.........even when he was supposed to be the good guy.

 

Tag, you're it!

 

Yup Gere was definitely the antagonist in that particular fight. He needed a good beating

 

...off the black guy.
Yes, well done, Malcolm.

 

Bruise Li vs Chuck Norris

 

Absolutely and yes. Was going to add that one myself.

 

Just watched that one last night. Definitely. Achilles was never in danger though. Would have been nice to have seen at least a few moments of that.

 

I didn't think that fight was competitive., Achilles seemed to be toying with him.

 

You didn’t like Jones-Hall ?

 

Like....in Predator?
You know, at the end, when Dutch gets Foreman-Frazier-ized x5?

That's an obvious one:

 

Fight scene in Gladiator where Russell Crowe fights the big dude in the Colosseum.

 

How about T2 ( edit just found out its actually the T800) vs T1000? That was a somewhat solid fight. Ended up with 2 badass robots in a puddle of molten steel.

 

That stabbing scene was fucked up, the way he comforted the guy as he killed him.
