... no one expects Neo to lose. But to get out of
this sneaky choke hold, Neo shows his true
athleticism once again as he front flips forwards.
Again, like before, it shows this in slow motion
along with the music. The reason for this, is
because as you have been following the speedy
punches and kicks from every angle, you need a
small break to give you eyes a rest, and to show
this part in slow motion allows you to do this but
also gives the move by Neo more meaning. When he
lands, the music sp...

impression for about 1 / 30 th of a second.
