The more I watch movies, the more I want longer shots, wider shots, and more people in the same shot. And if there's a cool thing happening, then show the action and reaction in the same shot - don't cut at the exact moment a punch connects or a car crashes. And don't play nonstop music in every scene, let the actors act.
The thing with longer, steady and uncut shots is that the actor has to know how to fight, move, etc otherwise it stops looking like Jason Bourne fighting and starts looking like Matt Damon acting.
That's why older movies just went with a shaky camera and a lot of cuts in a fight scene and have the scene in a take or two, and more modern ones prefer to go all in in training, choreography and long takes and show you what a good production can look like. I personally thank Tarantino for helping bring that kind of cinema from asia.
I'd recommend checking out the movie "Boiling Point". The whole 90 minute movie is shot in a single take and is incredibly impressive. It's a restaurant setting.
Also, the main actor has also done a tv show with a similar "single shot" for whole episode you may wanna check out.
Modern Indian films can be quite insane with the pacing and shot counts, not to mention the action and SFX.
I remember seeing one of the Michael Bay Transformers films in the theater with my nephew. Shots were so rapid fire that I had to look away regularly for fear of having a damn seizure.
