Movie Reviews of Fearless

Movie Review: both historical and spot on kung fu-wise
Summary: 5 Stars

I watched the theatre version, wich I think is this one. first of all, I grew up in China and loved Kung fu movies, thus I had my fair share of Chinese and American versions of "kung fu".

This movie tells a true historic story, it is slightly fleshed out but I couldn't pick out any obvious flaws.

This is real kung fu. Jet Li is a skilled martial artist turned actor. This films contain physical combat, no flying around on a wire. This is real kung fu, at least 98% of it.

I don't write reviews for movies, but I have to for this one.

strongly recommend it! This movie tells a meaningful story AND shows fantastic REAL kung fu. What else could you ask for?

Summary of Fearless

A moving and inspiring story of redemption and personal triumph in the face of great odds, Jet Li's Fearless is the based-on-facts story of Chinese folk hero Huo Yuanjia (Jet Li). The son of a martial-arts master whose greatest strength was his restraint, Huo grows into an unbeatable fighter whose pride and thoughtlessness lead to a chain of tragic losses. After a classic wanderer-in-the-wilderness penance, Huo reinvents himself as a mature instructor of Wushu, a martial arts system that embraces all forms of fighting without preference or pre-judgement. He also becomes a populist symbol, at the dawn of the 20th century, of China's refusal to entirely capitulate to the boot of Western colonialists. Taking on whatever European, American, or Japanese fighter the outsiders bring in to demoralize the natives, Huo becomes a legend that, in real life, is still revered. Thrillingly directed by Ronny Yu (Warriors of Virtue), Jet Li's Fearless is a dazzling action movie that transcends its breathless fight sequences with Huo's sportsmanship virtues, i.e., knowing when you've won by example, rather than by the fist. Jet Li is superb in the role. --Tom Keogh
