Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon

What is the purpose of the fight scenes?

The purpose of the fight scenes is to do two things. The first is to add action to the movie so that the audiences attention can be held. The movie is rather dull and the outrageous fight scenes are the only thing capable of keeping the viewers attention span past three minutes. The second reason for the fight scenes is to relay emotion that otherwise couldn't be expressed. The old saying actions speak louder than words is of particular importance to the fight scenes. There are several scenes in the movie that show emotions such as anger, the courtyard fight, or complete complacency, the bar fight. For these two reasons it can be seen why fight scenes are critical to the movie.
