John Wick- Chapter 3 - Parabellum (2019)

[jpaul]

Just watched Besson directed Anna ... that guy shows how fight scenes should be directed .. better choreographed ... not just quickly cut where you don't know what you really saw - steak versus fast-food.

If you think Anna is better than John Wick, you've got problems.

so you don't think the fast cutting / multiple camera angles, whilst it creates a sense of momentum (bit like a strobe light in a night club) is a cop out, and the fight scene is completely improbable/impossible/ridiculous ... maybe that is just the nature of the gendre and, a corollary to the shoot-em-up computer games that that audience demographic use.

But I prefer something that you think a human could actually do

Tbf to Keanu, he can do most of the gunplay shown in the movies and probably is capable of much of the fighting. Agree with the fast cuts though, it's somewhat frenetic but does suit the movie.

I seem to recall that's what I liked about Atomic Blonde fight scenes, seemed quite really and more human. Although was a while ago , might have to watch again.
