I be delighted so much from watching outstanding quality battle scenes, and excellent work of actors and they physical conditions! 👍 And in general movies about fights in 80’s and 90’s be shotted 🎥 much better and quality when in modern time. After “Blood Sport” I rewatched “Transporter” 1 and 2 with Jason Statham and I saw and feel how huge difference in quality of battle scenes and how it poorly and confusion in “Transporter”. All action like cut on pieces 1,5 sec each shoted from different points, and shot frame jump absolutely unsteady. It terrible, I very like Statham it not his fault what operator not be able to shot it well, or level of other actors not allow to work all scenes completely and it be cut and montages from pieces. I like old movies!
