Is that from a movie? or just some random fight short film on youtube?
That was AMAZING on several levels.
Though I assume you were being facicious, if that is meant to be it’s own short film, there’s really no plot, so sure, that could be emotionally hollow. I mean, where’s the character arc?
It is from a movie–click “more” at the YouTube page to read about it.
And I’m definitely being facetious–it’s a reference to a lot of critics I’ve talked about recently who have accused films that use showy long takes of being too artificial.
I’ve got to rent that! I love long shots like that, such as the scene in the Sopranos where Furio walks into the brothel to kick ass, or that scene in Children of Men.
WOW!

It’s definitely rad!
I figured, on both counts.
