Okay Scott, here's the deal...When all this COVID nonsense is over, we're gonna need you to take The Art of Action to the next level and do this in a full studio setup because you're really onto something here. I'm talking about the martial arts version of Variety's Actors on Actors. You may be able to punch a man's soul into the next life, BUT you really have a smooth interview style and demeanor and it demands to be explored further. These interviews are great and there are so many forgotten actors in this genre that have amazing stories to tell and you are the one to tell it.

Like you are since Undisputed 3! Awesome job man! Congratulations!

[@stateofflux3864]

Scott Adkins is such an underrated actor. His timing and conveyance of his characters is intense and captivating. His Martial Arts skill is second to none. I always enjoy his performances. & to come across his channel is wonderful. What a nice human being. As for Cynthia she has been giving me warm mushy feelings since the 80's ❤

[@kgf_2030]

Its Cynthia rock

[@-MrFozzy-]

He’s not underrated at all….he’s actually very popular, and gets a lot of work because of it. I wish people would stop saying that about people that they think are great….just say ‘he’s such a good…blah blah blah’. underrated means not as highly rated as they should be…but in SA’s case he’s exactly as rated

[@sergios4620]

I think it's all because of Hollywood paying more attention to the Marvel movies. That's making it look like the rest of the movies around the world are underrated including the actors in them. And the media has also a play on the matter. It's all about the $$$.

[@michaelg4158]

Scott Adkins is not underrated at all in the Chinese movie industry. He has a big fanbase there. He even won multiple awards from the Shanghai International Film Festival particularly in action choreography and stunt category.

[@yellowblanka6058]

Eh, he seems like an extremely nice and grounded guy, and I've seen a few of his movies - a great martial artist and obviously very physically fit, but pretty "meh" as an actor. As far as martial-artists/actors go, he's one of the better actors for sure, but still....meh.

[@pikachus5m166]

The greatest female action movie star by far. Her martial arts hand to hand, weapons combat skills, acrobatic stunt performances are unrivaled. I'm surprised Cynthia never starred with Jackie.

Scott's interviewing skills are off the charts. He's so natural and makes to looks this so easy but interviewing other person and allowing them to bring out the best of themselves is harder than it looks. Obviously, the fact that he, like all of us, is in love with Cynthia, makes the task a bit easier.

My Gosh!!! Cynthia Rothrock's beauty is timeless!!! When I saw that Scorpion Kick performed by Carrie Anne Moss in the Matrix, I immediately thought to myself: "That's from Cynthia Rothrock"! It's incredible that she has been doing all those awesome kicks in her YT channel with the power of her quads and hamstrings!!! Lol'ed at her account of the rivalry between her and Karen Sheperd!!! And such great stories from the Hong Kong movie days: always marveled at how they could make the fight scenes look so authentic, and now I'm beginning to realize from all of these episodes of "The Art of Action" that they looked real because they were real, full-on contact fights!!! And hearing her describe all those stuntman injuries; man they were hard-core!!! I really, REALLY wish that they find the rights to the "China 'O Brien" movies soon so they could do the next sequels: give us a trilogy at least!!! And I hope that she gets to do more movies; and possibly work with Scott on one! Thank you so much for another awesome episode Scott!!! Keep them coming!!! Much love to you and Ms. Rothrock!!!

Funny story time: Back in the days Cynthia was very quick to obtain some serious 'street credz' among the HK stunt guys and audience. Me and my friends like always were discussing the top martial artists in movies of that time. Suddenly one guy cuts in with a rumor: He heard his uncle, who was a stunt man, saying there was this foreigner who was also an incredible fighter with amazingly slick moves. We immediately called BS when he told us this person was even a woman, knowing that there's always THAT one guy in your group who takes the storytelling a bit too far... A few months later we had our jaws on the cinema floor when Cynthia started kicking ass. Fun fact: It was easier for us to believe she was fluent in Cantonese than what was happening on screen.
