Yeah, but we're only getting that single scenario from Hollywood. I wanna see the alternative for once
In fact, it might be a real slap in the face (literally and figuratively) to see the main character get beat up, really badly. Build up to the fight scene, slow down the frames, music suggests something heroic is gonna happen, an-
NOPE.
Cut the music, close up of him getting knocked to the floor.
Getting his ass beat for over a minute. No track, the just sound of punches and him struggling to make it out alive.
It's like the movie reminding you, "this is what it would look like in real life. Also, you're watching a movie"
Then, you can make him build back up. Do a reverse scene at the end
