10 Most Unforgettable MCU Fight Scenes

1. Black Panther’s Car Chase

Exceptional cinematography and choreography combined with a sublime music score makes this one of the most satisfying fight scenes in the MCU, and indeed potentially throughout all of cinema. We could all anticipate some sort of kerfuffle when T’Challa, Okoye, and Nakia entered the black market casino, but little did we realise it would end up being the iconic tech-fuelled car chase which rivals anything 007 has managed.

Seamlessly blending Goranssons’ Grammy-winning curated score with Kendrick Lamar’s Grammy-nominated music made for the ultimate Black Panther mash-up, and one of the most unique soundscapes we’ve seen for any Marvel film.

Far from the usual display of immense strength from our titular hero, this scene takes the steps to further demonstrate the skills of Black Panther’s companions: Okoye and Nakia match T’Challa’s bravery and combat skill despite neither of them having superhuman abilities (hell, Nakia doesn’t even have shoes), and with their teamwork they are able to take out a considerable chunk of Klaue’s henchmen.

Every element of this scene works together seemlessly to give us one of the MCU’s finest moments.
