Movie Reviews of Fearless
Movie Review: Deeply emotional movie...
Summary: 5 Stars
Jeff Bridges plays the role of a man who travels and lives to tell how his plane... crashed. During the ordeal, Max Klein helps many, assisting a child traveling alone to face the inevitable.
Jeff Bridges plays the role with great conviction, as the man who loses the fear of death and therefore, is able to help others during the minutes prior to the crash, and then, during the aftermath of guilt, fear, and emotional trauma. The plot is of a subject that is rather complex and we see the impact it has on his relationship with his wife, Laura, played by Isabella Rossellini, who tries to understand what is happening to her husband, to their marriage, and to the relationship with their son, and sees how the changes in her husband are about to bring it all to an end.
The depth of the subjects dealt with in this movie will leave you drained, but you will find yourselves thinking and pondering on subjects that we all experience, on the dormant fear of travel, and the meaning of life. We were deeply touched by this film. Highly recommend watching it.
Summary of Fearless
When Max Klein (Jeff Bridges) finds himself facing imminent death as his plane hurls toward the ground, he finds inner calm and release from fear in his acceptance of his own unavoidable end. His panic erased, he helps other passengers to relax, and when he survives the impact, to escape. What follows is his difficult and complex journey back to emotional and spiritual equilibrium. Along the way he helps Carla (Rosie Perez), a woman smashed by the belief that her infant son's death in the accident was the direct result of her inability to hold him tightly enough, and alienates his wife, Laura (Isabella Rossellini), who tries desperately to understand what he's experiencing. Peter Weir's film is emotionally intense in an absolutely unsentimental way (very rare), and the complexity of the protagonist's experience is refreshing (if you don't mind feeling deeply). The handling of the crash sequences is chilling in an unsensational way, and the directing in general is a triumph of story-serving restraint. Not the usual Hollywood fare, but intensely rewarding for those who are tired of mind candy. --James McGrathDrama DVD Video
