Huo Yuan Jia (2006)
A film to be remembered
This film stands out. It becomes interesting as it promotes the idea of love out of the heart-pumping kung-fu action. 'To fight on stage is to better know yourself', Huo, the character played by Jet Li, says in the movie.
The fighting scenes are impressive and beautiful-to-watch. Choreographed by Yuen, as always, they are one of those reasons that makes you stick to your chair. The acting and special effects are just about average, so don't expect too much.
Here comes the spoiler.
One thing to notice is that it can be viewed as a prequel to the Bruce Lee's film 'Fist of Fury'.
Jet Li was actually playing the master of Bruce Lee's character in 'Fist of Fury'. Jet Li's character was poisoned at the end in 'Fearless'. Remember Bruce Lee returned at the beginning of 'Fist Of Fury' and found out that his master was poisoned?
The place that Huo (jet's character) set up in Shanghai resembles the place in Fist of Fury.
One more! That evil Japanese was also present in the 2 films!
This is the most exciting thing in the movie.
