Jet Li's FEARLESS
 
Just saw this on dvd, what a great movie !

Good moving story and best fight scenes i have seen for a while. They blow away anything Jet has done in Hollywood!

Rumours are this is Jet's last period piece Kung Fu movie, that would be sad.

A must see for Jet Li and martial arts movies fans

Uhhhhh.... maybe he understands Chinese?

Tyler_Durden 04-14-06 06:17 PM

Or maybe he understands the universal language of chop sockey?

Well he said "saw" not "hear". :)

Personnally, I don't get the "but it's an action flick, you don't need to understand the dialogue!" rationale, but many people bought Ong Bak well before there was a version with subs available. Perhaps people are doing the same with this film.

The local Asian video store I frequent gave me a DVD of it (I shop there a lot and bring in a lot of business through word of mouth) but I haven't watched it yet. Is the audio in Mandarin or Cantonese?

dyerjp 04-15-06 12:54 AM

the audio is in both, the main track is in mandarin. i bought my copy from yesasia, then added some fan subs to it. i love this movie.

Haven't seen or heard of this flick, but the last Jet Li movie I saw was Unleashed ... and I thought it was terrific. That and Hero before that were great. :up: Will definitely check this out - once it comes with English subtitles. :)

i'm a huge jet li fan. been waiting for this one for along time. his next movie is called rogue with jason staham, can't wait for that one either.

Original Desmond 04-15-06 02:27 PM

this spits all over unleashed !

starseed1981 04-15-06 08:09 PM

I've seen it. Unfortunatley I saw it as a double bill with Tom Young Goung & Tony Jaa totally owns Jet Li now.

What's surprising about Fearless is that the story is better than the action scenes. Fight scenes were good (even though I didn't like some of the fast forwarded scenes), but Fist Of Legend is still my favorite.

lxl 04-16-06 03:38 AM

I've seen it, too, I have to say I am not very impressed. But I am not a Jet Li fan anyway.

Will this get a R1 release? I love Jet Li's old Chinese films, like Wing Chun et.al.

probably towards the end of the year. it comes out in the theater in the US around august, i believe.

AsianImage 05-02-06 04:50 PM

I just saw it...I know late in the game. I LOVED IT! This is a great great movie.

Also did you know this movie is kind of a "prequel" to Jet Li's FIST OF LEGEND and the Bruce Lee movie of the same story FISTS OF FURY.

Remember in those films, Bruce/Jet's character comes back when he finds out his master was killed in a dual with a Japanese fighter? He his master lost because he was poisoned?

international and domestic trailers

squaresoft7 05-30-06 12:55 PM

anyone know the name of the weapon used in the trailer, and on the main movie web site, its like a 3-piece nunchaku. 3 poles connected by 2 chains. It looks cool to use. Thanks

This? :confused: It's a 3 sectional staff.. made famous in 36th Chamber of Shaolin (aka Master Killer)

Fok 05-30-06 02:53 PM

Jet Li is a great fighter, too bad he can't act though

FantasticVSDoom 05-30-06 03:07 PM

Ive been waiting a while for this one...Looks like its coming soon. Any word as to whether or not the US theatrical release will be cut like most are?

ftsoh 06-18-06 09:33 AM

Saw its trailer last night when watching Tokyo Drift. Looks like it's dubbed in English. :(

This trailer? The only English in this trailer is the voiceover and two lines, one spoken by a white man, and the other by a Chinese man onscreen who is clearly speaking English. How does this show it is dubbed?

MASAMUNE2 06-18-06 11:43 AM

Wow! amazing trailer!

It certainly looks cool but it's all for show mainly. It certainly doesn't have the kind of killing power that a regular staff has. It's main function is to reach around shields- even so it doesn't have much power.
