He's a Chatty Cathy. It's debatable if Li is more effective when he lets his fists do the talking, but watching him speak in his native language is a revelation; he's a fighting machine, and an actor. Although "Fearless" bears a superficial resemblance to "House of Flying Daggers", this film has a moral center in which Clint Eastwood's "Unforgiven" sort of echoes(another echo: Elvis Presley), as if the filmmaker is doing the demythologizing thing for martial arts films(as Eastwood did for the western). Like "Unforgiven", the anti-hero returns as a hero when it's time to fight again. During the obligatory climactic altercation, the violence is senseless, but it's performed with a sense of honor and righteousness. If the action didn't take place in such a formal setting, the film's message might've registered stronger. Expand

Good sendoff. Storyline can be cheesy at times but everything comes together in the end. Another good hero story.

Someone said the ending could be better, first things first "This is based on a True story". They can't go changing what happened in the real legend even though is loosely based on it, the real person died at the end due to poison and is a key part to what has happened. The proper Chinese title of the film Huo Yuan Jia (not fearless) is the actual name of the real legend happened in china and the martial art school he made still stands in china. Gabor in his review he didnt like Crouching Tider style films. Well one Chinese kung fu films has always been made in that way for decades is the way usually done and two Crouching Tiger's style is completely different style to Fearless'. If you watch enough asian films and drama you will understand what I mean. Expand

Yes this movie is very good...I thought it was rather excellent until I realized that it lacked the proper closing. If they came up with a better ending than it would have been the best martial arts movie hands down!

It's always nice to see a good action movie, which doesn't bore the audience with stupidity. And it's always nice to remind people of why the seeking of inner peace is so important.

This movie is simply beautiful. Most people don't like it because it's not "dubbed" with English voices. The fight scenes are intense and the ending was unbelievable. Very great movie.

One of the best martial arts movies ever. The story of Huo Yuanjia is dramatic and moving, while Yuen Wo Ping's choreography is exciting and fast-paced.

Decent swan song for Jet Li's wushu film career. The fighting scenes were very good but I would've hoped to put the fighting sequences in the middle of the moves. My concern is that the acting still needs a bit of work.

A great visual action movie with minimal special affects & wires. Ranks within the top 3 martial arts movies produced, even though I'm not a Jet Li fan. The action shots are mostly realistic and a good performance for the actors. Great A great visual action movie with minimal special affects & wires.

One more usual movie with martial arts. That was my first thought about the film but I was completely wrong. This film is much more different than the the rest of this kind. It has a lot of surprises and a big value of different scenes. One more usual movie with martial arts. That was my first thought about the film but I was completely wrong.

It's everything you would expect from Jet Li, and yes, it is cliche but good nonetheless. I definitely recommend seeing this movie if you like martial arts films.

I watched the director's cut (Which has around an extra 20 minutes of footage I think) of this and thought it was excellent, wasn't exactly fight after fight throughout the whole movie like I first thought which I liked, solid plot I watched the director's cut (Which has around an extra 20 minutes of footage I think) of this and thought it was excellent, wasn't exactly fight after fight throughout the whole movie like I first thought which I liked, solid plot and excellent acting throughout, lasted two hours twenty minutes but I loved every bit of it, just one of those movies where you just sat back and let the movie take you in and wanted it to keep on going, truly stunning, I have watched movies like Hero and House of Flying Daggers but this seemed to be different in it's 'feel' and was overall better in my opinion, it just came across as much more beautiful and meaningful, if this really is Jet Li's final Martial Arts movie then it is truly an excellent one to go out on.

The story is awesome and the fighting scenes are some of the best I have ever seen. There are also three versions of the movie on one blu ray disc. Theatrical version, Unrated version and the Director's Cut version. The definitive version of this movie is the Director's Cut because it adds 35 minutes of extra footage to the movie. And the extra footage makes an epic and amazing movie even better. This is my favourite Jet Li movie ever. Expand
