Obviously, everyone has different tastes.
Yes, you don’t have to prove it, I was wondering what you meant.
For example: Nguyen, Jacobas, Saror.
We're talking about BI films here, aren't we? For example, I don’t like any of Jackie Chan’s films before... I don’t remember the exact date, but around 1982. All those “Snake in the Eagle’s Shadow.” But I really liked the only fight in PI2013.
But I don’t want to prove that I’m not a camel and still understand the issue a little. Laziness.
Yes, "action actors" who like 75% of what they do. :)
75% of what you like?
Are there those with a rating of 75%? ;)
I wonder what you mean by classic kung fu when you compare it to Muay Thai? The view of Chinese wushu “distorted” by most films or the “kung fu” that Bruce Lee brought in? And how many areas of kung fu, no, still wushu (since as we have known for a long time, there is no such martial arts as kung fu) do you know, to talk about the lack of expediency, plausibility and rationality in this martial art? I'm just curious.
You see, a large number of tricking elements, upper tier strikes and other acrobatics interfere with everything in a heap. Not always, but often. Just a series of showreels begins. You don’t remember anything that happened, you only remember endless rotations and flights. Moreover, when they are all shot in slow-mo, plus they are repeated from different angles, it feels like we are not watching a fight of heroes on the screen who are in some circumstances, but simply a showreel, a demonstration of blows. Moreover, the variety of these strikes is minimal, because many of them are built on the same principle. A couple of ligaments - a blow in slow mo - editing - repeating the same blow from a different angle or without slow mo - editing - a couple of ligaments - a tricking element - editing and then everything in a circle. It works in one maximum of two films. Then something needs to change. Or, as it seems to me, reduce the number of such strikes or tricking to a minimum. Remember how we waited with fascination for the final blow - Van Damme's spinner? One crown for the whole fight, but what a delivery it was. Because it was constructed dramaturgically correctly.
Regarding injustification. Yes, I will note this too, there is often a feeling of hammering nails with a microscope.
Again, my favorite so far is Johnny Nguyen. He alternates tiers very competently.
Tony in ONG BAK we do a lot of cool TaiBoranTricking elements, but more than half of them are unjustified. Panna then said - Oh, we did a shot that no one did in the movies. This is the one I described above, only in double twist. Yes! Cool! But why??? Did the situation really require this?
That fall with two people knocked down is cool. And then... there was no hooking. Why did you fall? You could just do a double kick.
But a low kick with a sweep, and then a blow in the voice without stopping, that’s cool!!! A cool deception for hitting the enemy's pumpkin, causing him to feel vague. Acrobatic climbing through scaffolding - cool! Jumping over glass and barbed wire is also cool!!! But a double somersault in the same chase is unjustified.
Personally, I like at most half of what Jaa and Boyka do.
I'm slowly wondering how tricking differs from, for example, what Tony Jaa did in Ong Bak and company. Or, for example, our non-arguing Boyka.
I have already said that after a quarter of a century of watching action films, I came to the point of expediency, plausibility and rationality, and therefore I love Thai boxing much more than classic kung fu.
- Why not... Good idea. We've just got something going on here. I'll try to implement it. True, these will not be sheets of paper, but something else. But still in the same vein. The essence will remain.
Good suggestion from Ravenside!!!
Yes indeed... everyone is crazy and jumping like crazy. No wonder why this happens. Almost no one uses sound logic. Especially in parkour. It pumps mainly different types of show reels. Everyone is running somewhere around the city, very often unnecessarily completing a million elements.
By the way, try to take it off. Seriously, stage the situation, film it and post it somewhere on YouTube. Let's see how it goes.
Competent tricking is rare. Nowadays they use it “simply because they can”, very monotonously and predictably, and most often they use it to hide the lack of sane ideas in choreography. Even with its inept use, the characters in the fight lose their own identity - there are no styles, no features, each character is similar to the other, all madly jump and spin in the same way.
- And to be honest, I don’t like it either. If only he is justified. Speaking of justification. I never understood the swing-and-mill kick with landing on the kicking leg.
Well, do you all remember Yuen Biao's trick in ABOVE THE LAW, MY LUCKY STARS, as well as Chin KaLok's mill, performed for Jackie in DRAGONS FOREVER? When the blow goes in a bunch, no matter what, it’s a moot point. But when they beat him separately - Nonsense!
Imagine that someone, for example, threw away important documents, and while the hero is fighting for them, one of the villains is trying to grab them. So the hero dodges a hook that one of the attackers inflicts on him by jumping. Going to strike. He spins in the air because the second one is trying to reach him. And so the hero throws a swing kick, landing on the striking leg...because one of the attackers grabbed the papers. And the hero jumped onto his greedy paw. And then he jumped off the claw and kicked the dude in the big ass with his other foot. The dude, languishing from pain in his arm and head, was no match for the battle.
Isn't it possible to do this??? It's as simple as three kopecks. Any blow or trick can be done this way. And in competent tricking there are even more opportunities.
For example, I don’t feel very good about it.
By the way, Aideen is not the most versatile dude, IMHO. And when he was in “Movie Before” and now he stands out precisely because of the absence of a pronounced acrobatic component on the screen. He is more of a striker, makes good connections, but unlike his colleagues he does not jump around the upper tiers. But this has nothing to do with girls, it’s just a note.
And one of the girls, as I understand it, Heidi Moneymaker is a former gymnast and now a stuntwoman.
Many people don't like tricking...
There, Aidin alone would be enough to erase the malicious smiles from their faces. %) But this is a girls’ project, perhaps that’s why the guys were so brazenly exposed. If only we could find out the plot, then everything would become clearer.
The girls are incredibly charismatic! BRAVO to them!!! Acting + acting out strikes. Well done!
But how the guys let us down... I don’t understand. Moreover, the guys are pros!
Lost their grip somewhere under female influence!
At the same time, look at the action technique and photogenicity of the girls, it’s simply amazing.
And yes, the blows that await you are simply terrifying; they simply put your chest under your legs and knees.
I agree 100%! - Girls are fire!!!
But my God!!! - I am disappointed!
It was filmed so-so and the main thing is Reel Deal Action (and they personally have my authority!) and it’s such a shame to act!!!!!!!!!
Like, hit me, I'm ready to be hit. Indian cinema of the 70s. My God! Again people step on the same rake three hundred times!
“Behind Every Great Man” - the girls are awesome, the music is not the same. More precisely... this way: the music would have been the same if everything had not been filmed in the bushes. These damn bushes ruin everything. Because the music is a classic epic symphonic OST, while the mood of the music is intense, pathetic and infernal, and the girls with these predatory smiles and glances are simply demonic. And the faces and movements are just fire. But there are some bushes and men in hoods around. Now, if only this would all be in some more aesthetically suitable place - a castle, for example, or if they were released as assistants to the main boss in some stronghold of evil. Or they would be some kind of mystical creatures, reptiles, robots (of course, I’m already chasing, but still). and here... some assholes from the bushes, home-grown maniacs.
Although, of course, I don’t know the context of the entire short film, but there is still an incompatibility between visuals and sound.
Or at least they would film it all at night. And the light was built competently. But if at the end of the film these girls drank the blood of their lying enemies... that would at least be something.
