There are some really good ones in Kiss of the Dragon with Jet li - one near the start in his uncles shop (I think) and then at the end against those two twins

All of them in ‘The Raid’ but certainly the best is the one with two of them taking on the really aggressive guy.

Somewhere off the edge of the map... 'ere there be monsters

Man, so many good ones out there. Some that spring to mind though are;

- Luke vs Vader in The Empire Strikes Back

- The Man in Black vs Inigo Montoya in The Princess Bride

- Hector vs Achillies in Troy

- Holmes vs Moriarty in A Game of Shadows

- Pretty much any Jackie Chan fight scene

As a stiff board of a man he is, Steven Segal in hand to hand combat scenes is brill.

Quite a few in the matrix films.

Rocky, the whole damn franchise is just great fighting.

Jet Li is always good, but there a scene in expendables with Dolf which is wicked.

John wick films again.

And as mentioned, the Bridget Jones scene. Its the most realistic of any of them.
