Break dancing, like, B-boying, you got a lot of sweeping techniques that you can't find in any martial arts. Timothy: There is an aesthetic beauty and dance-like quality to the fight sequences that you see in Hong Kong actions.

Everything Everywhere" drew inspiration from classic martial-arts movies, which routinely showcase fights with fewer cuts and camera moves compared to modern Hollywood action movies. We talked to the film's stunt coordinator and fight choreographers to find out how they pulled off some of the movie's most memorable fight scenes. Narrator: Another moment that needed wire support: this wide shot where Michelle extracts butt plugs from both of the Le brothers in slo-mo. Andy is getting pulled by a wire, while Brian's suspended up top holding a plank position.Timothy: We were able to get this visual of her floating doing a flying knee down the stairwell towards Michelle. Narrator: Wires were pivotal in the trophy fight, which was full of extreme motions, like this leap through the air. Narrator: Wirework, or "wire-fu," has long been a signature of kung fu movies, with OG Hong Kong films using wires so thin they were invisible on-screen, even if they sometimes broke. You might be noticing a theme here: characters making weapons out of haphazard objects in the environment, from IRS trophies to computer keyboards.

Timothy: It's a great example of that juxtaposition of a seemingly powerless body part, your pinky, blasting people into these just crazy reactions. And we used wires for all of the reactions to that to get this very dynamic reaction out of it. Narrator: The fights in "Everything Everywhere" bent the rules of human movement and action in general. Andy: And a lot of those moves, a lot of those sweeping groundwork floor techniques, they don't exist in martial arts. Yeah. That was Brian Le, who, with his brother, Andy, choreographed the fights in the film and actually appeared in several of them.Narrator: In this three-second shot from "Everything Everywhere All at Once," Ke Huy Quan pulls off five distinct moves with zero cuts.
