Such a great movie

They're all great but I just love the three villagers vs Axe gang fight. They're not superhuman but they're good enough to fend off the village. They only sprung out of necessity and defense and organically found each other. Was really cool.

Just that silence when they pour the gasoline(?) on those two villagers was so tense

I love this movie. It's hard to pick a specific fight though. They were all pretty damn good. I picked the chosen one vs the beast though. Even the whole first half was great. I heard a sequel was coming out too.

I had to pick the Three village masters, but that kind of feels like cheating because you get such an awesome variety in styles. Any one of the village fights in isolation wouldn't be as good as beast versus lovers, but together it's just too enticing a package to turn down.

The musical assassins and their phantom "army" has lived in my head rent free since I was a child. Beast VS Lovers is very close though.

Best vs Lovers

The look on the Landladys face when ol boy effortlessly blocks her kick is perfect. Followed by "Piece of cake, i can handle this"

Me too. I haven't watched it in like 7 years or so but it's pretty amazing that not only does it still hold up, but I appreciate the design of the movie even more. Music is definitely super good, I think the most memorable part is when they pour the kerosene on the village people and you hear the guitar(?) swell up throughout the scene. Also I definitely think he got inspiration from Tekken because some of the grunts are definitely Tekken-esque.

Easily the guzheng fight because it was the perfect balance of choreography, fantasy, and score.

Idk if a sequel will come out, it's been in the works for too long imo. But yeah him discovering his powers is pretty cool. I meant the entire sequence, not just only when he fights Beast

There's just little other details I noticed. For example, in the Lovers vs Beast fight, he starts off saying "I either want to kill you or be killed by you". When I was younger, I thought it was really grimy that he fake surrenders only to try and kill them, but now, it's like "well to be fair, he said what his goal was from the start".
