Wow. That topped Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon for me, as well as Hero. Possibly the best martial arts film I've seen. Not for the action (although it did have good action) but for the fact that Jet Li found a meaningful story for his last one.

Thoughts on Jet Li's last martial arts film?

It's his last martial art's 'epic' I think. He has another film coming out called Rogue (name may have changed) that has him doing his usual Wu-Shu masterclass. I thought Fearless was excellent, definitely up there with his best performances.

has another one called "war", the guy is full of crap. this was really one of his only movies that he used wushu in, others are just choreographed with big kicks and punches.

i saw a good majority of fearless, and it was pretty good however it was a bit boring (hence why i closed it) but it actually showed some of the martial arts compared to most films where it is just people running at each other with kicks and punches

The best one's to see his Wu-Shu in are the Once Upon a Time In China films. I don't see why he would stop making them....I mean why stop doing something you are good at. Having seen Unleashed I'm guessing he wants to be taken more seriously for his acting ability rather than his martial arts.

This is Jet Li's last wushu movie, not his last martial arts movie. Out of all the movies he's done so far, Fearless definately tops them all. The story was amazing as well as the action.

It's his last film based 'solely' on Wushu. There's nothing to say he won't still perform it forthcoming films. It would be impossible for him to make a film without some elements of Wushu in it.

The film War that he is making (may be finished) at the moment is Rogue that I mentioned before. The name was changed recently I think.

I just saw it last night. I thought it was ok. Not a bad movie at all, just not my type. Was not very interesting to watch.
