Never thought I would find fight scenes this beautiful. Well done!

[wtbates]

Not too bad. A lot of wasted moments because your fight scene choice could have been a lot better. I would have dropped Spider man, Inception, Pirates, and Limitless. They detracted from your efforts.

The editing was well done.
