Critics Consensus

Fearless is a brilliantly choreographed, beautifully filmed endcap to Li's quarter decade of epic martial arts glory.

A bad movie that doesn't even work as entertainment. [Full Review in Spanish]

ComingSoon.net

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.

Rated: 7/10

Fearless was an incredibly moving film. The acting was great from everyone involved, even through the language barrier, and the martial arts and stunt performances were perfect. There were moments where I found myself visibly flinching at what was happening on screen. The film does an excellent job of capturing the intensity during every fight scene. The story was also very impactful. The themes of honor, tradition, and forgiveness were handled beautifully, and I found myself really invested in the journey of the main character and his struggles. The pace of the film was a bit slow at times, but it did not change the experience of an enjoyable and thought-provoking watch. If anyone is a fan of martial arts films or wants to watch something with a powerful message about the dangers of arrogance, this would be the film to watch.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars
