Keanu Reeves’ bullet dodging in The Matrix has been crowned the best movie stunt of all time.  A poll of 2,000 movie buffs saw Neo’s impressive bending technique in the 1999 science fiction smash ranked above Tom Cruise’s antics in Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation, where he gripped onto the side of an airborne plane.  Other highly rated stunts included the car skydive sequence from Fast & Furious 7, where real cars were dropped from a plane 12,000 feet above the ground - and the iconic chariot race from Ben Hur, starring Charlton Heston.  While Daniel Craig’s fight scene as Bond from Skyfall made the top five – with Craig, Reeves and Cruise all making the top 20 more than once.  The research was commissioned by Samsung, which has teamed up with stunt director Tony Christian from Spectrum Stunts to reveal the planning that goes into creating some of the most iconic scenes from movies in instant slow-mo, following the launch of its Galaxy S24 FE.
