Fearless
Here again is an "Unrated" version so I'm not even going to try to differentiate it from the theatrical release. I know Jet Li talked about trimming some violent shots for the American rating so that's probably it. Considering real fans saw this a year ago, it hardly matters.
DVD Review: Jet Li's Fearless
The American DVD includes one deleted scene and it's a very interestingly motivated fight scene. During his exile, Li's character witnesses a brutal punishment of a young criminal and offers to take the beating instead. So he stands there absorbing blows, clearly informing his character's changing stance on violence.
It's such a different scene from the rest of the film's action, and so clearly important to the character, it is surprising that it was not restored into the film. Li is a total badass just letting this peon wail on him. The scene is presented in full DVD quality for our enjoyment.
Jet Li's Fearless is out on DVD now.
Stay tuned for updates.
