Perhaps the single most entertaining shot in the entire trailer, this one shows off not only the character's power, but just how much fun they're going to be able to have playing around with it.

As one of the low level criminals attempts to hit Cage, it turns into a slo-mo shot of his hand crumpling against Cage's face, which stays completely unmoved. Hopefully it's not something they drastically overuse, but some clever slo-mo elements will help the series stand apart and make the most of his abilities.
