    Christian Bale is great as the new Batman. And I loved him in The Prestige. And I thought Equilibrium was good as well. American Psycho kind of disturbed me, but it had some great lines.

    I find that violent scenes in movies don't really get to me unless the violence is portrayed in a very realistic fashion, with no sanitization. Most so-called violent scenes and movies have cartoonish, sanitized violence so it fails to get any reaction from me.

    Thus, that's why I said the scene in Saving Private Ryan was the most violent. The death scene is not sanitized, and the horrific reality is right in your face; the Nazi soldier is taking great, personal pleasure in slowly inserting the knife into his heart, and you see the blood, you see the horrified desperate look on his face as the knife goes in. And you can almost feel the knife go in; you can perceive the essence of a dying man, and the hatred and glee that the Nazi feels as he snuffs out his life.

    To me, that is more horrifying and violent than all the car chases, explosions, and Hollywoodish machine-gunning of foes tthat I have ever seen.

    I agree with CNB.

    There are some scenes with almost a comical display of horror/violence. That wasn't what was so much intended in this thread. I found it personally uncomfortable to watch Rocky III. Unfortunately, for me, kung-fu movies don't do much for me in the way of terror or violence. While I realize it's all Hollywood behind these movie scenes, it's like comparing backyard wrestling with WWF wrestling.

    Possibly for another thread, would be sadistic bad guys. For that, I would vote Ralph Fiennes in Schindler's List, as the Nazi officer who stands on his roof picking off the working Jewish population below, Peter Stormare in almost everything he's been in, or Jason Issacs in The Patriot.

    Saving Private Ryan is VERY uncomfortable for me to watch. Probably the most disturbing scene is when the car pulls up to the farmhouse. That whole scene gets to me every time I watch it... no dialog was necessary.

    Yep, the whole movie is painful to watch because the violence is portrayed very realistically. I enjoy watching it, but I cringe at several points in the movie every time I watch, even though I have seen if over a half-dozen times by now.

    Private Ryan and the last Silence of the Lambs sequal with Anthony Hopkins. He guts a guy and hangs him at the same time, cuts the top of a guys head off and feds him his own brains, and somebody gets eaten alive by gaint hogs.

    I find that movie really moving and hard to watch but watch it quite often, lest we forget. Once I asked a German speaker what that soldier was whispering into Mellish's (?) ear as he killed him and he said 'for you it is easy' or some such sympathetic thing. I never had the impression it was glee in the German soldiers heart, more a sense of mutual respect...

    Anyway, my vote for most shocking violence in a movie would be the sudden, and very realistic, domestic violence in Once Were Warriors.

    ummm yeah, I just remembered a really disgusting scene in that movie. Pesci has this guys head in a vice, and mentions that he's one tough customer, since he didn't crack even when they pounded nails into his balls. Ouch......
