Description:

"The most intense fights from the movies," promises the new FlixMix interactive compilation, and, quibbles aside, it delivers. A 50-minute testosterone-enhanced mix tape of 16 high-octane film clips, this sequel to the Boogeymen horror compilation is a marked improvement, if only for the visceral quality of these attention-grabbing highlights. From pounding fistfights (Brad Pitt's bare-knuckle brawl in Snatch) to blood-spattered gunfights (Al Pacino and his "Little Friend" in Scarface) to clanging swordfights (Gladiator) to eye-popping martial arts spectacles starring Jet Li, Michelle Yeoh, and Jackie Chan, the diversity is inspired, though the quality of clips varies from excellent to adequate and too many are full frame. These short, sharp shots, often only a sample of a much longer fight (where is the fiery climax of Legend of the Drunken Master?), will leave you hungry for more, and the brevity keeps the energy from flagging for even a second. --Sean Axmaker
