Plot Synopsis: Already a boxoffice hit in Asia, Jet Li's Fearless, directed by Ronny Yu (helmer of the Hong Kong classic The Bride with White Hair), is Jet Li's final martial arts masterpiece, capping a tremendous body of work in that genre. Jet Li's Fearless reunites the actor and martial arts superstar with producer Bill Kong (Hero) and action choreographer Yuen Wo Ping (Unleashed) as he portrays martial arts legend Huo Yuanjia, who became the most famous fighter in all of China at the turn of the 20th Century. Huo faced incredible personal tragedy but ultimately fought his way out of darkness and into history, forever defining the true spirit of martial arts. His self-discovery, and the choices he made, inspired his nation.

Connections with other films

Comparisons can be drawn between this film and one of Jet Li's earlier films, Fist of Legend. The character of Huo Yuanjia is the master of Jet Li's character in Fist of Legend, Chen Zhen; in the earlier movie, Chen Zhen returns to China from Japan to avenge the murder of Huo Yuanjia which is depicted in Fearless. The films also explore similar thematic material: in Fearless, Huo Yuanjia eventually learns that the true purpose of martial arts is self-improvement and self-development, while combat with others is useful only as a means of testing one's progress, and he teaches this lesson to his Japanese opponent. In Fist of Legend, Chen Zhen is told the same lesson by his own samurai opponent, who claims that martial arts are a means of improving one's physical health, but if one wants to kill a man, one should use a gun.

In an earlier film Fist of Fury (formerly known as The Chinese Connection), Bruce Lee portrayed the student Chen Zhen of Huo Yuanjia who seeks revenge for his poisoning. This film was the archetype of Fist of Legend.

Nakamura Shido (Anno Tanaka) appears as an extra on Fist of Legend. Near the beginning of the movie, after Chen Zhen and Funakochi Fumio leave the school, and walk down a crowded street, they walk behind a line of soldiers. The last soldier seen in that line is a very young Nakamura Shido.

Creo que todos los ripeos del Director's Cut vienen del mismo DVD de Edko. Seguramente van a calzar sin mayor problema.

Los espero! Gracias!!  

Edito: pequeña corrección para la ficha de mi ripeo en el 1er post. El idioma es Mandarin. Saludos.

Muchas gracias señores, por fin podremos ver a Michelle Yeoh en la peli y esa supuesta pelea contra un contrincante de kickboxer no?

[elguaxo]

Hay un par de escenas más, entre ellas la del thai-boxer es muy buena, no solo la pelea sino toda la escena en sí por lo que significa para el desarrollo del personaje principal.

Por otro lado los minutos con Michelle Yeoh son más bien relleno. No molestan, pero no aportan mucho.
