X-Men stunt fighting


Recommended Posts

Some of the fight choreography from the X-Men Origins: Wolverine film:

Know you guys don't go in for flashy kicks and all that but it is pretty sweet. All unwired too.

The discussion seems to indicate it's from Undisputed 3 rather than X-men..

Very impressive flashy kicks to maximize visual appeal. I keep noticing all the 'Physics do not work that way' bits though. Partly because I have to work through them myself to avoid using techniques that would come apart halfway through.

Dunno about which film its from. Does say X-men in the description but I know the guy's played Boyka in the Undisputed sequels.

:) yes I agree on the physics part. Does not make any sense to spin counterclockwise then try to throw the kick in the clockwise direction, makes for no power even if it does look cool. Hard to pull off though. We sometimes mess around with stunt fighting at training and getting 360+ spins in is pretty difficult. Nice bit of acrobatics though?

Oh, it's very good acrobatics. I just always notice the parts in movie fight scenes where an acrobatic technique is done that only works if there is no significant energy transferred between the attacker and the target.
