Um, maybe you didn't notice but Yuen Wo-Ping was the action director for the film! That might explain some of those Wong Fei-Hong (Once Upon a Time in China 1-6) references, considering Yuen Wo-Ping has done action direction and directed numerous HK films.
For those of you who saw the movie and though the action scenes were cool I highly recommend renting some HK action films, starting with John Woo, Jet Li, and Michelle Yeoh and then moving on from there.
