Fighting is ok

The film was copied too much, learned the lessons of "Hero", lowered his psychological expectations, and resolutely did not go to the cinema. But it must be seen, who made him Jet Li, who made him Huo Yuanjia, and who made Yuan Heping stand behind him. I finally waited for the clear version on BT and downloaded it immediately.
Two scenes that I don’t appreciate personally: the competition on the high platform was originally a highlight, but it was a pity that too many close-ups of fast and slow shots were added, which ruined the overall beauty, but it was a bit self-defeating. The martial arts design with Master Qin made it clear that the restaurant was to be destroyed to the greatest extent possible. Shouldn't the masters show off all the wonders of martial arts under the graceful movements of chatting and laughing? Such a fight is not convincing enough as the first and second judgment.
It seems that all the masters must sacrifice their family and friendship because of their competitiveness, and then have nothing, wandering around the world or wandering in the paradise, and finally enlightened. Obvious commercial factors are at work, and all kinds of sensational plots are poured into it. From a technical point of view, the film is still good, especially the martial arts. Overall, the charm is not good.

Fearless quotes

  • Huo Yuan Jia: Poison works very quickly. It has worked its way to my heart... Zhensheng, promise me you won't seek revenge. Revenge will only bring us more bloodshed. Please, that's not what I want. We must strive to become triumphant... Nong Jinsun, I only understand wushu. I practiced for many years to understand what Wushu is, what is wushu's real purpose. The competition must continue. One cannot choose how one's life begins. It takes courage to finish the final step.

  • Anno Tanaka: Since there's no superiority or inferiority in Wushu, why still have competition?

    Huo Yuan Jia: I believe that there's no superiority or inferiority in Wushu. Just the distinction of practitioners with different levels of ability. Through the competition we can discover this and meet the true self. Because indeed the antagonist is namely ourself. Only through competition, can one recognise one's true self.
