Watching "Fearless", I feel dizzy!

People watching TV series "Fearless" in the empty alleys are still young, old and fuzzy. I only remember that Iraq is a national hero, good at fighting, and has a friend named Chen Zhen.

Today, I am looking forward to watching Jet Li’s work of the same name at Donghuan Cinema. Starting with Shaolin Temple and ending with "Huo Yuanjia", Mr. Li has come all the way from a young man. The 42-year-old said that he would use this film as a review of his many years of martial arts.

At the beginning of the performance, the young protagonist was weak and strong, and cried bitterly when he watched his dad fight against others. The little actor has no acting skills to talk about and fails. As soon as the camera turns, he is an adult, his father is dead, and he has a daughter, but there is no explanation.

It's about being detailed and proper, so I comforted myself, but fortunately, the play has officially started. Although he did not know where the martial arts masters came from, and did not mention the word "Mission", Comrade Huo Yuanjia continued to win many standings and ranked first in Tianjin. Doubts, different paths lead to the same goal, but not the first, there must be some strategy, Huo Da hero only relying on the courage of his husband, why can't he be undefeated?

The old mother and the young daughter were killed by the enemy, Huo Yuanjia was greatly stimulated, and went away in despair, drowned in the river and was rescued. Obviously it was rescued by a large group of people, but they lived in an orphan and widow's house, and spent the whole day with a young woman. Seeing people worshiping their ancestors, they patted their buttocks and went back to their old home in Tianjin to go to the grave, but never came back.

This time we will fight again, no longer fighting against the Chinese, only foreigners. After playing the huge "Transformers" and then playing the Toyo Devil, he was poisoned and died hastily.

The lights were bright, and the scene disappeared, dumbfounded. This is dead, this is over? ! Is this the culmination of Mr. Li's many years of insight? !

Perhaps because of the high expectations, I was extremely disappointed. No matter the plot or the actors were headless, like the composition of a playful elementary school student, it was messy and scribbled. Its appreciation value is just a joke, Mr. Li is joking with us.

What remains in my memory now is a close-up of Huo Yuanjia's face before his death, kind and quite Buddha-like. With black blood dripping from the corner of his mouth, kindly, saying goodbye to my expectation.

    141min guide cut version. Even as a real biopic of Fearless, it is completely qualified. The standard three-act script structure. Those who don't know how to write a script can take this script to study the basics. The literary drama is sincere and moving. Two and a half hours of detailed character depiction made the feelings and story lines of several protagonists sufficiently full, and also made the resonance of the climax play naturally and strong. The sense of nationality is indeed too easy to mobilize. The mood of the audience who watched this movie may have been It's the same mood as when we watched "The Wandering Earth" today.

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.
