One of the most memorable scenes in the 2003 South Korean action film, Oldboy, directed by Park Chan-wook, features Dae-su, the protagonist, armed solely with a hammer, facing off against a group of thugs in a narrow corridor. It is filmed in one uninterrupted take, conveying a raw, unrefined energy. The minimal use of CGI contributes to the fight's credibility, making it all the more remarkable. This scene is very popular among fans as it highlights the effectiveness of action-based storytelling.
