That's the main thing that makes it harder to watch John Woo's HK movies nowadays and appreciate them...a zillion American directors have copied his style and watered it down.

Like in "Desperado" when Antonio Banderas slides backwards across the floor firing his two Ruger P90s...an obvious rip-off of the church scene from "The Killer" when Chow Yun-Fat does the same thing with his twin Berettas/Tauruses.
