The choreography in this movie was incredibly lazy.
- Apocryphon 5y agoYeah. As confusing or bad the writing and dialogue in this movie got, that was never new to the franchise, the sequels had plenty of that. But what doomed this one was the lack of good action, some of it was truly bad. I understand that Lana is much older now and likely doesn't want to do the "hire a comic book artist to storyboard each scene in excruciating detail to make it perfect" ordeal anymore, the stars are much older and not as action-capable as they used to be, and that the pandemic probably troubled the production terribly. But the action scenes look incomprehensible at times (the train), with utterly mediocre CGI (the lake house), just horrid angles and motion (the finale at night). I would've rather they had just cut out all of that and turned this into a mystery or psychological thriller, instead of trying to force action scenes that just look embarrassingly bad.
- sydthrowaway 5y agoThe real reason is the original fight choreographer from HK cinema is missing.
- the_doctah 5y agoThe sad part is, when re-watching Matrix recently, I realized how amazing the choreography and the quality of the edits actually was.
