Best you can get with weapon fighting, theres versatility and flow, and the narrative weight and length of fights is masterful
Incredible fight choreography start to finish, this has better fights than 95% of movies easily, do not write it off
The fights have an almost primal intensity to them while still being masterfully choreographed
Pretty reliant on guns which generally make fight scenes less interesting imo but the hand to hand sequences are visceral and brutal, you feel the weight of every kill and hit, excellently done
The choreography itself is fairly slow for the standards set by the best of the best but its done incredibly regardless, it feels like youre actually watching highly skilled masters fighting and the narrative weight is excellent
Great use of environment in these fights, takes a bit to really ramp up but the fights just get better and better as it goes on until you get to those final 30 ish minutes which are just top tier
This is kung fu comedy fighting at its best, seeing people just get frustrated while fighting jackie chan is done so well that its funny while not being overbearing
Another one that relies on guns but the gunplay is actually incredibly satisfying, bar the cgi blood effects its incredibly fun to watch these characters shoot people, the final fight sequence with the trying to shoot the guy and him constantly blocking it is so satisfying and the hand to hand combat that follows is incredible
