... or the one cut fight scene from "Daredevil."
That's not a one cut fight scene. The editing is good, but there are somewhere from two to four cuts.
If it's not, then they did one hell of a good job at making it look like one. It's how some of my friends in film refer to it, so I defer to their judgement.

Crouching/Hidden was a cool amalgam of "Oscar-bait" and "martial-arts movie". Still more conventional than something like "Ashes of Time", which is what you get when you shoot a wuxia film with a phaser set to "deconstruct".
That's a great way to describe it! Might be time to pick up Ashes of Time Redux on Blu-ray. I'm pretty sure my old DVD copy didn't survive my last move.It is like watching wuxia from inside a gin bottle.

One of the original DVD releases. I got it around 2000 - 20001, pretty soon after being introduced to Wong Kar-wai films. And thanks for the review link!Was your DVD the redux version or the original?
I haven't seen the original Ashes of Time but I really liked the redux on blu-ray. Have a review of it here: http://thebedrockblog.blogspot.com/2015/01/wuxia-inspiration-ashes-of-time-redux.html
