Who is your favorite martial artist to watch go beast mode? Any we missed? - And check out our featured song: "Try A Likkle More" by Jonathan Emile! th-cam.com/video/KbljJdgbyWY/w-d-xo.html
Van Dam seeing an eagle and some warriors in Kickboxer 1989.
Mylee cut these ropes. Just cut them.
he's coming.
Don't worry.
*kicks to the face of tong po*
*Tong Po goes, blaaaah. Like he is throwing up.*
It's sooo hard to pick! Jacky, Ip Man, and Bruce Lee... How can one pick?!
Bruce Lee
Ip vs 10 Black Belts
I'm upset that the Mad Dog fight at the end of The Raid: Redemption wasn't included. All three fighters were brilliant.
That Ip Man 1 vs 10 black belts scene is by far my top favourite fight scenes of all times! I’ve watched it like 50+ times and still get goosebumps every time I watch it! Simply epic! 👍👍
IP Man's fight with 10 people is the definition of going beast mode! He turned into a completely different persona when the other master was killed in front of him. Strong and emotional scene indeed!
The Raid 2 kitchen fight scene and Rama vs Hammer Girl and Baseball Bat Man are my favorites from that movie. The prison yard fight scene is pretty awesome too.
I feel like Tony Jaa & Michael Jai White don't get talked about enough in these kinds of lists...
Michael Jai White .. haha. he think he can beat Bruce Lee.. enough said. Tony Jai is real deal
Foreal, nobody talks about Blood and Bone and it baffles me.
@@mxxre33 Yeah, someone told me about that movie a few years ago about him kicking 4 people in the air. That was really good. I just think he's a poor actor. I would never tell him to his face.
@@sambolini7160 the top people who I think could give Bruce a run for his money in a legit fight at their primes are:
Donnie Yen
Samo Hung
Jet Li
Jackie Chan
Michael Jai White
Tony Jaa
@Michael Terrell II I disagree about the acting. Spawn and Black Dynamite okay, but try watching Android Cop.
I'm suprised that the bone breaking scene in the Protector isn't even a honorable mention. Tony was full of rage and then fights like 50 dudes lol
Damn I’m Mentioned that fight....
Agree.
Facts bro I commented the same thing that’s one of the best fighting scenes I ever watched no music just Tony going stupid lol
How Jean Claudes sorry ass blind scene in Bloodsport beat any scene in The Protector is beyond me.
Toki Longsmokes right right
I think almost all of the fights on any of the Raid and Ong-Bak movies should've been on this list. I've never seen more jaw-dropping fights like those.
The final fight of Drunken Master 2 (aka The Legend of Drunken Master) is still #1 for me. In the English version, Jackie's names for his moves are very random (ex: "monkey drinks master's wine", "eagle carries wine bottle", "drunken maid flirting with the master", "uncle stirs the barrel", etc...). In the original version, however, he's actually naming the Eight Drunken Immortals from the first Drunken Master (1978):
Lu Dongbin - the drunkard w/ inner strength [Jackie also plays Lu in The Forbidden Kingdom under the character's birth name]
Zhang (Chan) Gualao - the drunkard w/ the swift double-kicks
Lan Caihe - the drunkard w/ the sudden deadly waist attack
He (Ho) Xiangu - the drunken woman flaunting her body
Li Tieguai - the drunken cripple w/ the powerful right leg
Han Xiangzi - the drunken flute player w/ the powerful wrists
Cao (Tso) Guojiu - the drunkard w/ the powerful throat lock
Zhongli (Jun) Quan - the drunkard holding a pot in his arms
He reintroduces these mythical beings during the market fight, and then leaves it up to the audience to visually identify each one during the climactic match against Ken Lo's insane taekwondo. Hence, not only is it engaging audiences beyond just watching two people battle, but Jackie is also playing different characters as if doing an interpretive demonstration of their attributes. A perfect example of multilayered choreography that sets it apart from being just another typical martial arts fight scene.
Watching Ip Man with an english audio is criminally wrong
🤣
They couldn't have asked Donnie to dub himself? He speaks English just fine.
@@JnEricsonx ikr! luckily in Star Wars he voiced himself though.
@@JnEricsonx Uhm...no. Ip Man is a movie about the Sino-Japanese War of 1937. WHY would they be speaking English in a war between Japan and China?
@@Dalinos I just mean that when they did the English dub, just ask Donnie to do the lines instead of someone else.
"I choose to fight 10 men!"
*Someone in the crowd:* "Ah. Then it is an even fight."
u br0 hello
You mean...an uneven fight *keeping up also means watching who their against as well*
Karate-ka: why do I hear boss music?
Meanwhile in Thailand:
*50 men got totally bone breaked by a guy who was seeking his elephant after he found out that his elephant was dead*
hmmm halo reference
I am 36 rn. Everything mentioned and most footage used has been my entire childhood with me and my dad watching. My dad, a Vietnam vet and 78 yrs old, had a very post war torn post life. He drank a lot. But when Kung Fu and Van Dam came on, we, as a family always tuned in. Watching this has a lot more meaning to me than creator will ever know. Good stuff
How the Raid 2's kitchen fight scene didn't make the list I will never know. That is the best fight ever in my humble opinion
I would sell my kidneys to see Bruce Lee, Donnie Yen, Iko Uwais, Jet Li, and Jackie Chan all fighting each other
And later team up to fight like hundreds of people
How about a movie with Tony Jaa, Iko Uwais, Tiger Chen, Scott Adkins, and MIchael Jai White? It's called Triple Threat.
Jon Ericson triple threats story was cheesy and the acting was horrendous but they have some really good fight scenes
Don't Forget Tiger Chen, Tony Jaa, and Mark Dacascos (Drive is such an underrated movie!).
@@chingu_billy5144 You're watching a movie like that to see those guys kick ass, and they did.
The kitchen fight scene in the Raid 2 should have been number one. Those movies were amazing
Tony Jaa always goes beast mode. The entire move The Protector is basically just a movie version of the classic beat-em up game genre.
I've watched all those films mentioned on this list but I believe the final fight between Iko and Cecep in 'The Raid 2' should've been #1, those two went all out beast mode in that scene.
Bruce Lee: life is beast mode.
Bruce Lee is old News.
Never
@@Godagmannokseskaft HA! You wish you were a percent of the man Bruce Lee was..
@@IGyung_dynamo1994 Well, I never Said I was aiming to be anywhere close to Jun-Fan or even Carlos Ray or Li Lian-Jie. And I dont intend to!
But Jun-Fan movies are bad, people can say what they want. If you study movies you will understand. Brandon Lee made better scenes, characters and movies than his old man. And that pretty much say it all. But If you are stubborn and dont want to understand, then I understand why you are like that.
True
Bruce Lee, Tony Jaa, Iko Uwais, Donnie Yen, Tiger Chen, Scott Adkins... all excellent martial artists who deserve a spot on this list.
Yes😁💯
Jet Li: Am I a joke to you?
Jackie Chan
My honorable mention goes to the first Police Story with Jackie Chan, where he went into Cop form of Beast Mode to chasing after bad guys on the briefcase with computer data, its messy with destroying props in the mall, brutal of the moves and pretty much life risking, especially the infamous scene where Jackie jumps and slides down on the electrical pole that not only he was electrocuted, but also having a second degree burn on his hands, broken back and dislocation of his pelvis. This stunt nearly killed himself, but it is amazing how he got away without dying.
Ok, yall sold the Raid and the Raid 2 short. The brothers fighting Mad Dog at the end of The Raid... OMG! The Kitchen Fight in Raid 2 is the Wolverine vs Sabretooth fight I always wanted
The Mad Dog fight was the only time I've ever witnessed an entire movie theater get up an cheer at the end of a fight. That was just brutal.
l know it's a bit of a satire but you missed "Kung Fu hustle" crazy comedic fighting scenes and also Iron Monkey.
Sing: You wanna learn? I will teach you!
Iron Monkey doesn't really get the recognition it deserves
@@beejaybanua9894 You are definitely right. It's an amazing movie. A must watch if you are a true fan of Kung Fu.
I asked my girl to watch kung-fu hustle with me and I was skeptic she was gonna like it, point is she loved it and now she is my wife.
@@TheSoler33 No pun intended but you basically hustled your girlfriend at that time to marry you lol. Congrats 👏👏👏
THE RAID: TUNNEL FIGHT
That was jaw dropping
People could argue back and forth about who the best martial artist is, but I feel like this list helps solidify that Donnie Yen is probably the best at translating excellent martial arts into some of the most powerful fight scenes on camera. Like, he just knows how to present the skills to make them look as badass as they can be.
the raid final fight scene should have been in this, two guys vs one, they go all out, even though they have nothing left, and a guy got a light tube shoved into his neck and kept fighting.
The clip was from Raid 2, and how can they not have Tony Jaa from The Protector?
Nothing beats the fight scene in Blade 1998 when he jumps down and screams “FROST”, kills Quinn and catches his glasses. The scene from Kiss Of The Dragon when Jet Li vs The Twins.
Jackie Chan... I would trade a hundred other actors for a single extra generation of his work.
He has 2 new shows coming up, one with Arnold
He is insanely good. He loved Bruce probably more than anyone else. Maybe not as much as IP Man. And he became as good as his idol if not more since Bruce died young
Donnie Yen went Beastmode like no other scene when dude threw that little girl in the street in Flashpoint.
I remember that... I was oh hell they done gone fkd up 12 ways right there lol
Old boy when he fought with all the thugs in the building he has a knife stuck in him while fighting like a maniac.
Agree! Oldboy corridor scene should have been at least in honorable mentions...
That's a VERY good one.
I don't think that counts as Martial Art... But good scene nonetheless
OMG yes I Agree 100%
It wasn’t mentioned cause he isn’t a martial artist
When Donnie Yen as Ip Man kicked the asses of 10 Japanese black belts.
#1 pick cannot be denied gave the chills when one first saw the intense scene, sense of rage, hate and destructive.. Which indeed these feelings flowing inside the viewers too, at least me. Donnie Yen is truly one of the legend.
So you're telling me that Jackie Chan's scenes in Police Story don't make this list? He legit got cut, burned, broke bones, and almost died doing crazy fight scenes on a playground and mall and you think that isn't enough to make this list?
go on...
@@WatchMojo Not to mention that in both fight scenes that I mentioned he fights multiple guys continously even after being hurt... if that's beast mode idk what is
And the roof top scene from Who Am I
Rumble in the Bronx 4 Lyfe
Wheels on Meals has the best fight scene, the only problem is that it's too low on the list.
The Raid could easily take up all 10 spots.
"Danny The Dog" Jet Li fight scenes
I thought nobody else knew that movie 😭
It was called Unleashed in most countries.
Wow... absolutely! I'm surprised that movies didn't get mentioned on this list.
Fuck yeah, that movie is absolutely in the top 5 best of all time
This list is VERY mediocre. No SPL on this list either! Donnie vs Sammo Hung was a glorious fight
I’m glad this was made. Big fan of the genre, and I still sometimes forget how badass Jackie Chan was in his prime
Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, Donnie Yen, Benny Urqudez, Ken Lo, Jet Li and Billy Chow were incredible, one hundred percent.
@JASON P. Roberts And we all still miss him alot. It's been over 47 years. *sighs*
Donnie Yen is always a beast lol 🤷🏽♂️
that is why his movies are so good
*Im gonna watch ip man rn on netflix.*
Not always. In Donnie's early days in the movie business he was seen as the worst fighter with the most boring fight scenes.
Legend of the Wolf is just an insane movie in general. One of my favorites and I always recommend it to anyone interested in Donnie Yen
1. Donnie Yen
2. Michael Jia White
3. Scott Adkins
4. Tony Jaa
5. Eiko
All after Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan & Jet Li
Remove MJ white and add Donnie in the league of Jacky chan and Jet lee. Keep Master Bruce Lee above these groupings.
@@groot843 for real 🤔...??
@@groot843 Exactly
The fact that we're talking about beastmodes but Ong Bak/The Protector only gets an honorable mention is kinda disappointing.
The final fight scene in Dragon's Forever is probably my number one of all time, three great fighters doing some of the craziest moves, and the stuntmen take some of the wildest falls ever.
Haven't seen the first The Raid but the sequel was insane
Edit: I also find it insane that I didn't know Donnie Yin existed before the Star Wars movie he was in... 😓
The last 30 minutes of the raid 2 is just Rama going completely the beast mode.
Love that action masterpiece wholeheartedly.
I know it's a movie but I swear The Raids’ fight scene are real 🤣😂
Donnie Yen should have Directed Mulan 2020. Change my mind!
No one should have directed Mulan 2020.
@@profmucker3200 liked both your comments, do not regret it.
@@profmucker3200 you got that right
He was in it at least.
No, Donnie Yen should have broken out a lightsaber in Rogue One, fought and died at Vader's hand.
I know it’s not a martial arts movie, but the fight scene from Broken Path should definitely qualify for this list. Johnny Yong Bosch goes straight-up Ultra Instinct.
The Raid 2 kitchen fight scene....now that...... was intense
You should've picked the raid 2's end fight, that's when the protagonist went full beast mode for me
"Kiss of the dragon" Jet li vs the twins...No??????
That was one of his best films i ever watched
Yes. You watch a movie like that and then you start looking for more movies of that actor.
heeeeeeeeey! kick from nowhere
Honorable mention
Flashpoints final fight was one of the most realistic, grounded, underrated and real beast mode open fight
The night comes for us should have been on here. Brutal fight sequences and some of those most tense scenes I've seen in martial arts movies.
Enter The Dragon is the greatest martial arts film of all-time and had a number of "beast mode" scenes that are superior to most of the fight scenes on this list. If I had to pick one scene from ETD, it would be the underground battle with Han's guards. This was a beautifully choreographed fight scene by the late, great Bruce Lee, and it was one of the most eclectic combat sequences in movie history. Lee seamlessly switched from empty hand/foot techniques to weapons such as the wooden staff, double sticks, and the nunchaku. The list further insults the Gone With The Wind of martial arts films by including a scene from a movie (e.g., Bloodsport) that is a blatant ripoff of ETD. It's also important to note that many of the scenes on this list were sped up which involves the film being undercranked whereas ALL of Bruce Lee's fight scenes were either shot at normal speed or were overcranked in order to compensate for Lee's incredible hand/foot speed.
Didnt have to read more tjan the first sentence. No, Bruce Lee is old News ad most stuff is embarrasing compared to Even his fellow actors at hos time.
@@Godagmannokseskaft Bruce Lee is the one who popularized martial arts movies in Hollywood. Without Bruce Lee,there is no martial arts movies in Hollywood,no asian actor in Hollywood,no slow motion aspect in martial arts movies. Bruce Lee is on a league in its own. New movies can't even touch Bruce Lee's movies. In Bruce Lee's movies,it all about realism and none of the other movies come even close to Bruce Lee's realism in movies. No one is even as much popular as Bruce Lee till this date. All the other guys have to increase their frames in the movies. But Bruce didn't. Bruce Lee is on a league on its own. Still there is absolutely no movie that can recreate the genius of ETD fight scenes. You are completely wrong. Without Bruce Lee,there is not Jackie chan,Jet Li,Donnie yen so on and so forth.
Exactly
@@phoenixj1299 WoW, you need to wake up.
Bruce Lee movies are not reslistic anywhere! They are stiff, has little to no story and very, very poor acting apart from Lee's party tricks.
You have to remember that actors like Chan and Li was on the rise in their own countries. Without Lee martisl arts, would be the very same it is today, only Without Lee fanatics. Even Lee's son made better movies than his old man.
@@Godagmannokseskaft " you need to wake up" you need to live in reality as u clearly don't know anything about fighting. "Bruce Lee movies are not realistic,they are stiff" LMAO I can't even take you serious. That's because it's "realism" Do u honestly think you will do summersault and all those stuffs in real life situation as shown in Jacki chan ,Jet Li,Scott Adkins and everyone else's movies? You are blind. Absolutely no athletes (boxers ,UFC athletes) claim Jet Li, Jackie chan and all others movies are realistic. Sugar Ray leanord,an actual boxer says that his fight scenes are realistic. Joe Rogan(UFC) says that Bruce Lee movies are realistic than any other movies. Anderson Silva,UFC athlete ,says Bruce Lee movies are realistic and he took some moves from his movies. No fighter said that Jackie chan,Donnie Yen and all others movies are realistic. You are delusional. Without Lee there is no JC,Donnie yen and so on. It again proves u know nothing about fighting.
1) Back then Chinese movies weren't famous in Hollywood "untill" Lee changed it
2)There was racism against asian actors and they don't prefer Asian actor in the lead role unltill Lee changed it.
3) Martial arts movies aren't popular in Hollywood untill Lee changed.
Without Lee no one would hire Donnie ,JC. The social stigma would have still continued. Lee revolutionised martial arts movies. He is on a completely different league. All the others have to follow in the shadows of Bruce Lee. They can't do what Bruce Lee did.

Suckkaaa
The Raid 2 kitchen fight scene. Best fight scene in modern cinema!
Tony Jaa was an absolute beast in his movies
The whole list should just be The Raid
If you haven't seen any Donnie Yen and Tony Jaa movies, then yes.
Do not disrespect Ip Man
Raid and Undisputed
And the raid 2 or the night comes for us.
Jp Ward the night comes for us is more action and gore than martial arts tbf
The BEST fight scene ever created is between Donnie Yen and Wu Jing in SPL!
the best scene i ever had the oportunity to watch
No, gangbang is always better.
I'm really surprised you didn't put anything from ''The night comes for us''....... That's probably one of, if not the best martial arts film ever made
Great list! Had no complaints about your list!
I really wanted Tony Ja in this countdown. But it was still on point.
you mention benny jet and jackie chan fight scene.. i APPROVE
Also don't forget about:
Police Story (mall fight),
Wrongfully Right (Yuen Biao vs Corey Yuen in Flight hangar),
Also check out many Indian movies fight scene like:
Singham trilogy,
Any movies staring Vijay, Rajnikanth, Ajith Kumar, Arjun or Kamal Hassan, where they offen goes for beast mode.
your number 1 pick is spot on. I was waitin' for it.
No Jet Li vs himself in 'The One'?
Deff not that garbage film
That was a great film
I feel like Donnie Yin was going to have multiple fights on the list.
I was really expecting to see Joe Taslim in The Night Comes for Us. That whole movie is brutal.
The Raid. Final fight...
Mad Dog goes right off... True Beast Mode.
One of the best 2 on 1 fights I recall...
I watch those movies and fight scenes as a kid, Brings back memories
Kinda disappointing to not find the Kung Fu Panda vs Tai Lung fight on this list...
Thanks for the Spaceballs reference during your commentary on the Donnie Yen vs. Mak Wei-cheung #9 entry. I lol'd!
The 2 on 1 fight in raid redemption is just insane. Also Kung Fu hustle had some brilliant scenes
A full Top 10 Martial Arts Beast Mode list, and Tony Jaa only gets an honorable mention?
What!? No Tony Jaa in The Protector?? He went beast mode.
Blood Spot! Haha.... There are so many good fight scenes to choose from. Thanks for the video!
I want to watch all of these now!!!!! Some I had already but all in a row,now.
Sooo yall gone act like Jackie Chan vs Jet Lee didn't happen... riiiight.
Seriously I was waiting for that to be on this list
It's two screen in Tony Jaa "The Protector " that is worthy of this list
Donnie Yen is a beast through and through, he went through that mode on countless occasions, and Flashpoint summarized that perfectly in that final confrontation.
Great video!
Not even going to mention Unleashed AKA Danny the Dog? It’s practically in the name.
The girl in chocolate was full beast mode from the start, more so against the dance fighter at the end.
Yoooooooo! That movie is hella slept on!
Great list 👍👍👍
I love these kinds of list
Can’t believe Black Dynamite’s Kung-Fu training session isn’t on this list...
Who the hell is interrupting my Kung fu?
“HOOOOYYYEEEEEEEEEE!!!”
Yo... you on to something with this one.
Ikr smh
When Bruce Leroy got The Glow.
They ain't ready for that. 😄
"LEROYYYYYY!!"
The first super saiyan
"Catches bullets with his teeth!?"
:::holds up signed pic of Taimak:::
I love Watch Mojo’s martial arts videos.
Right before the end I thought you failed me but then the scene I was waiting for all along came :)
The Matrix trainstation fight scene. Loved how Keanu guestures "come get some" after standing up. He did 95‰ of the stunts himself despite recovering from neck surgery.
How they gonna leave out Tony Jaa when he's breaking all those limbs in Tom Yum Goong/ The Protector
Love this list
Kihachi Okamoto The Sword of Doom 1966 , was one of the greatest martial arts movies of all time. The end scene with Ryunosuke Tsukue played by Tatsuya Nakadai. Ryunosuke starts to descend into complete insanity and begins attacking his fellow assassins. He kills hundreds until a freeze-frame catching Ryunosuke in mid sword-slash ends the movie.
Tony Jaa, The Protector. Final Fight Scene where he fights hordes of lackeys, snapping bones ruthlessly for killing the adult elephant.
RIGHT???
That shit was Snap Crackle POP!!!
Jackie will always be one of the best!
And So is Bruce!
And Donny and Jet!
You seen the interview with jackie talking about how Bruce accidentally hit him in enter the dragon was bloody hilarious
Looks like I have a list to catch up with... Again! 😍🙌😁
3:47 was dope asf i had to take a double look on how the hell he did that lmao
Undisputed III showed no brutal realism. It was like watching a dance session.
Final knife fight in "The Man From Nowhere" is a rare gem and No1 for me. Fun fact: the actor, Won Bin, actually WAS a close combat instructor in the Korean Special Forces (like in the movie).
I remember watching Wheels on Meals as a kid - the fight scene with The Jet blew my mind
Makes me craving to rewatch flashpoint
And the raid is one of the best movie from indonesia, really love the fight scene
