Reviews
|
Chicago Tribune -
One of those corny, lusciously mounted, almost predictably thrill-packed action movies you can't help but like.
|
|
Premiere -
Despite some amusing jabs at America's influence on traditional China, this film leaves even this American viewer feeling oddly patriotic (or maybe just wishing she lived in China.)
|
|
New York Daily News -
Li's performance is stronger here than it has been in previous films.
|
|
The Hollywood Reporter -
Witty choreography juices the pedestrian plot of Fearless, an earnest and technically accomplished biopic in which action star Jet Li flexes his limited dramatic muscles to portray kung fu master Huo Yuanjia.
|
|
Variety -
Manages to pack a satisfying emotional punch.
