Review of Fearless (1993) by Kevin J — 21 Aug 2016
Powerful. Stirring. Therapeutic. Fearless is a terrific film from director Peter Weir about a man healing and trying to come back to life after surviving a plane crash. A tough and thoroughly hard to watch journey, Jeff Bridges is stunning in the lead role as a man who tries to grapple with what he saw and come to grips to with what happened.
As he is dragged in every direction, he finds one solace: saving others. Unfortunately, he cannot save himself and must bring himself back to life along the way. From beginning to end, the emotion of the film takes centerstage and really does sweep you up as you watch this man struggle with this tragedy and even his own role in its aftermath.
Packed to the brim with great acting and directing, terrific character development, and great writing, Fearless is a drama film that has considerable heart and packs an emotional punch that leaves you both elated and on the brink of tears.
