Damn those action scenes are 10 times better than today's shaky cam and quick cuts. I can actually see what's happening.

When the action scene ended I said to myself "What the hell just happened? Who won the fight?".

[@anthonyju6392]

@@One.Zero.One101 The reason why it is done especially when it comes to women is that most women don't have the beautiful but powerful coordination that men do. This is why women who were formally dancers can really make the cut because choreography is very much dancing. That is why Michelle Yeoh is able to do it.

She approached it from the dance perspective, while Oshima and Lee actually had martial arts pedigree. Cynthia Rothrock also help popularize this genre.
