A Martial Artist’s View of Jet Li’s Latest & Last Martial Arts Film: “Fearless”
There must have been only a dozen people attending the Florida showing of Jet Li?s latest and reportedly last martial arts film, ?Fearless.?
But numbers lie, because you can?t judge how ?boffo? this film is from its box office numbers.
This is gem, I?m sure you?ll agree, when you see it.
In this movie, Li?s character is descended from a father who could have been the martial arts champ of his province, if he hadn?t shown mercy and followed through with a punch he had already expertly launched at his adversary?s heart.
Li swore that he would redeem the family honor and win the title that eluded Papa.
As he journeys toward greatness, Li learns many things about love, life, revenge, and honor, and we see him mature as a martial artist and as a hero.
This movie is masterful at examining the role of restraint in a warrior?s life; a theme I have written quite a lot about, lately. Let me say, by the time the end of the movie is achieved, a great harmony between a battler?s motivations is consummated, almost improbably, but witnessing this outcome is very moving.
I suppose I knew that this was Li?s last contribution to martial arts films, and touched by this cinematic farewell as well as by the tightly woven story, I found myself immobilized as the credits ran.
Though you?ll see some good action and intense swordplay and wire-assisted leaps, this offering is more about internal strength than anything else.
You might see it and conclude as I did, that Li is the real deal, and most important, he leaves his fans and sometimes overly enthusiastic brawlers with more to ponder than their speed or athleticism.
He shows that the martial arts are a noble and humane endeavor, and their true aim is the perfection of character.
