Visual fatigue

The toughness and bloodiness of the fight scenes are the key to the film's appeal.
It is precisely because of the fight that the director seems to put all his bets on the fight, resulting in more fighting scenes, longer time-consuming and more visual fatigue towards the end. In order to deliberately promote the protagonist's dripping fighting skills, let him fight with his bare hands with one person, with many people, with people with knives, people with sticks, and even people with guns. Gradually, it exceeded the visual limit that the audience could bear. From the inconceivable at the beginning to the unreasonable at the end, more and more people felt that it was better to end early.
Especially the part of the fight in the kitchen, it really makes people fall asleep. With countless knives, guns, and sticks around, he just wanted to fight others with his bare hands. If the climax of the fight can be less bare-handed, adding some unexpected details of getting a gun or a knife and turning around and killing it can not only relieve the audience's visual fatigue, but also stimulate the audience's desire to continue to appreciate.
