Very similar to that is the title track for Crimson Tide. It takes a bit to warm up, may want to skip ahead to the 1:45 mark.
This is an awesome thread.

Technically, Prokofiev was a neoclassical composer. He was just such a master of every musical form he tried that it’s difficult to believe his classical compositions were created in the 20th century. See also: Stravinsky and Ravel (two neoclassical composers who get more play and respect than does Prokofiev, which is criminal, IMHO).
Hans Zimmer is good at this sort of thing. I recommend:
Gladiator
Black Hawk Down
Batman Begins and the Dark Knight
Crimson Tide
I’d recommend some 90s Graeme Revell - The Crow and The Negotiator
Christopher Franke’s work on the Za’ha’dum episode of Babylon 5 is certainly interesting
Brad Friedel’s Terminator soundtracks are percussion heavy, but that ain’t a bad thing.
And Patrick Doyle’s work is surprisingly emphatic, especially on Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, and the Agincourt sequence from Henry V.
