Three films I can recommend that portray well the terrifying fighting prowess of the Maori - Once Were Warriors and its sequel What Becomes of the Broken Hearted, and Utu. The latter film is about a Maori warrior who is a member of the British Army and goes rogue when a different unit of the British Army destroys his home village. Brutal.
