I think that Nolan was trying to keep working with the "always at the corner of your eye" way Batman works and therefore tried to make the fights blurry and dizzingly fast, but sometimes I just ended up really confused after 5 seconds of blur and a couple random punching and kicking noises all the bad guys were unconscious. Matrix-style slow-downs would definitely have been horrible, but at the very least it would have been nice to have seen a complete karate move every now and then :)
But on the whole, it was a great movie and I really enjoyed it.

How many real life fights have you ever been in? I was in more than I should have been from ages 7-23. There is a lot of confusion in a fight. The more often you get hit in the head during a fight, the more tunnel vision you tend to acquire. In that respect, the flash action technique used was, while not perfect, a good representation of the chaos of a fight in progress. It is also a nod to the blipvert method of presenting information.
