Jet Li's Fearless

The Reel and Real Stories of Huo Yuan Jia
by Dr. Craig D. Reid

Now that Hollywood has almost ruined the conceptual approach of Hong Kong’s evolution of stylized martial arts fight choreography, there’s one film left this year that’s a welcome sight for fight-film fans. After a four-year absence from the kind of movies that made Jet Li famous, he’s come out of retirement for one more curtain call that’s sure to bring the proverbial house down. In Fearless (Chinese title: Huo Yuan Jia), he’ll portray real-life martial arts hero and founder of the Chin Woo Physical Training School, Huo Yuan Jia. It’s not the first time he’s played a true-to-life Chinese martial arts legend, but apparently it’ll be his last.

If I like Black Belt I'll pay $29 for a full year (12 issues). If I'm not satisfied, I'll return the bill marked "cancel" and owe nothing. The cancellation is effective immediately and any trial issues I receive are mine to keep free.
