The level of realism for a female practising martial arts is very poor. Awful.
The lead character is a featherweight at best. In real combat sports, even pro fighters have poor chance against someone 5-10kg heavier. In the movie she fights man clearly far heavier than her and their interaction is unrealistic at best.
The teacher coaches in Chinese Martial arts - the routine practised by the students are modern Wushu style routines but they are dressed in Japanese 'Gi' and wearing coloured belts. There are no belt ranking in traditional Chinese Martial arts. There are samurai swords in the background and the training mat Japanese style.
For a movie that centred around the theme of Martial Arts, it appears that the makers of the movie made little effort to research on their theme. It is rather appalling
