Martial art films have always been fun, but not oftenly super intelligent. Until Fearless, no one really demonstrated the spirit of Martial Art like Bruce Lee. Jet Li brought the definition of power to a new level, through his almost ballet like kung fu moves, he chose to tell a story of human being, falling from the hunger of fame to the rising of self-respect and soul searching. I have never seen such depth in a martial art movie about fighting itself.

More admiration goes to Jet Li for his willingness to truly express his ideal and understanding. For someone who is this influential in both east and west, he chose this movie as his messenger, to deliver such a wise, subtle and inspiring spirit. It is a shame that people in martial art films seldom got nominated for any awards…
