“Bob, what button did you push?” In the opening sequence of this high-octane, bus-gone-wild thriller that solidified Sandra Bullock as a star and Keanu Reeves as an action hero, crazy bomber Dennis Hopper takes an office elevator hostage by remote, while wise-cracking SWAT team officers Reeves and Jeff Daniels rush to the rescue. Oh, and the guy he beats is played by the then largely unknown future-superstar Sammo Hung! It’s not nearly as stunning as many of the other fight scenes in the film, but it’s a great introduction to Lee’s smooth, powerfully acrobatic moves. It all eventually goes wonderfully haywire, with Riggs chasing down the car on foot, a helicopter getaway ensuing, and an endless supply of squad cars lining the scene - all topped off by a couple of impressively explosive climaxes.īruce Lee’s greatest film (and also the last one he ever completed) opens with a scene of him sparring with a fellow student at the Shaolin temple, demonstrating his uncommon grace. As their dispatcher shouts warnings into the radio and their fellow cops take bets as to their fate, the two protagonists yell and bicker and banter (as is their wont). The second installment of the Mel Gibson–Danny Glover buddy-cop action-comedy movies opens on Riggs (Gibson) mid-scream (or is it mid-whoop?) as they careen down a street in Murtaugh’s (Glover) wife’s station wagon chasing a group of perps.

Somehow we did it while limiting ourselves to just three Bond entries. So we decided to look back at this trend via the most notable opening action scenes from over the years. Along the way, with the popularity of Bond, as well as Star Wars and Indiana Jones, these opening action scenes – sometimes pre-credits, sometimes post-, sometimes with a bit of context, sometimes with pretty much none - have become practically de rigueur among a certain type of film. The idea of starting a movie with an action scene right off the bat was not so common once upon a time it’s been perfected by the Bond movies over the years, though its roots reach far earlier than that. Still, if there’s one thing we can all agree on, it’s that Spectre has one of the better, opening pre-credits action scenes of the Bond movies. While it’s sure to make money hand over fist ( good start so far), the Daniel Craig–led spy thriller is proving rather divisive among both moviegoers and critics. Last week saw the opening of Spectre, the long-awaited, much-speculated-upon, fairly contentious new entry in the James Bond series.
