Jackie Chan smartly uses props and his environment to fight a scene. By using props and environment, it is more believable for the viewers, and the whole action scene is just not intense but rather fun. Chan mostly uses tables, folding chairs, papers, sticks, scaffolding, and ladders. In Jackie Chan’s First Strike, he even wears bright yellow overalls, to make the scene comical. Therefore, it is no wonder than Tan found his inspiration for action scenes in Chan.
He posted a video of his clip from Fistful of Vengeance, where he is using props just like Jackie Chan. From the trailer and the clip, we are very sure that the entire film is packed up with action moves that going to blow your mind.

In an interview with Nerds and Beyond, Lewis Tan claims it is good to be back. The sequel film makes more sense than another season of Wu Assassins on Netflix. The movie makes the action scenes more condensed and better, which is easy to digest for the viewers. Tan also explains, “We took some of the weak points and made them better. And then we took the strong points and, just like amplified it, put it on steroids. So, it’s like a literally… like a non-stop action film from the first 10 minutes. It just goes to the end.”
