Isn't a cutscene literally the only part of the game where you can't lose? It's just a video that plays on it's own to move the story forward isn't it?
They don't mean lose the game, they mean your character gets beat up for story purposes.
Sometimes it's scripted that the bad guy beats you up. Or like another bad guy shows up after you beat the first one and then defeats you
I always hated the "convenient helplessness" of these scenes.
