That's absolutely correct.  Some people think that the length of fight
scenes is the ultimate guage of how good a martial arts movie is.
Some say it's a matter of how realistic the martial arts are.  Some
say that script and cinematography are important factors in martial
arts films, some say script and cinematography are irrelevant.

While I personally doubt I would like the script for _BloodRayne_ as
much as I like the script for _Hamlet_, I'm also pretty sure that
there have been performances of _Hamlet_ that I would not enjoy as
much as the movie _BloodRayne_.

And just for the record, I thought the movie _BloodRayne_ was pretty awful.
