Fearless Reviews
A bad movie that doesn't even work as entertainment. [Full Review in Spanish]
| Jun 28, 2019
| Original Score: B | Sep 7, 2011
Part bio-pic, part wuxia, Fearless melds the best of both genres and in the process makes something greater than the sum of its parts, commenting both on its genre and human nature in general, both as they are now and what they could aspire to be.
| Original Score: 7/10 | Mar 29, 2011
Jet Li's final fight; teens OK.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Jan 2, 2011
A honorable send-off

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 7, 2008
Every action sequence is imaginatively mounted, from a dizzying fight on a high tower, to the sight of Li taking on a wrestler twice his size...
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jul 30, 2008
Teamed up with veteran director Ronny Yu and renowned choreographer Yuen Wo Ping, Mr. Li does some of his best work here.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 14, 2007
More of a message movie designed for mainland China than a karate chopsocky for consumption in the West where a martial arts movie has to be about butt-kicking to generate any traction.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Apr 27, 2007
Not so much a message film as it is a martial-arts epic with a philosophical backdrop. And it is utterly sincere without being treacly or preachy.

Fracassa como exemplar de artes marciais e, o que é ainda pior, como homenagem a um homem que inspirou grandes atletas e atores (incluindo o protagonista desta produção).

As energetically corporeal as it is touchingly spiritual.

Li carries the load on his shifty shoulders in a nostalgic wushu period piece that is philosophically solemn yet kinetically impish in its reflective spirit.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Oct 23, 2006
Fearless has some of the best choreography I've seen in years, and Li handles the task with his usual finesse.
Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/5 | Oct 17, 2006
The film is about more than complex stunts and breathtaking acrobatics. It's about a man who learns the pitfalls of pride and becomes a national hero in the process. And it's a good time at the movies.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Oct 9, 2006
It's a treat for fans of historical martial arts epics and especially for fans of Jet Li, who won't be the ones to tell the star if he's starting to show his age.

If Li must leave his signature genre, better this entertaining bit of history than the wall-to-wall boredom of Hero.

The martial arts master's final epic is great when the fists and feet are flying.
| Original Score: 6.5/10 | Oct 4, 2006
Do you really mean it, Jet Li?
