ReplyDelete-It portrays Hou's ancestor as a man who killed many innocent people just for the sport of it. It also shows Huo's redemption and eventual self-fulfilment comes through his unrequited love for a blind girl.
-Huo was portrayed as a wealthy man with servants, when he actually had a working-class background.
-The film shows Huo's family being murdered and Huo dying without any heirs, which could make people suspicious of his family's claim to be direct descendants.
2)Hou Zizheng just want the defendants to admit the mistake, and help to restore the reputation of his forefather and cure the bad social influence caused by the film.
3)its realy not nice if the small children will watch this kind of movie...
-its very on chaos..
-secondly the story line was not true maybe some of it but its not....
in that case this children will be affected by doing this in the same manner ..bullying someone or fighting with someone with no reason...and they can believe in the information that the movie telling...like HOU YUANJIA is not a good person...or even like this guy was a shit on china...this man is not a hero...
heheh...;]

1. Huo Yuan Jia was a very different person after he had won his battle. He became so proud of himself.WHY ?! why must he become so proud of himself? well its up to you to answer for yourself.
ReplyDeletehe has a very strong background impact.
his family was very WEALTHY !!
(O.M.G)
i've heard from the story that he had killed an innocent people.
WHY?
after he had become very strong in his MARTIAL ARTS, he built a MARTIAL ARTS SCHOOL called 'HUO'.
everyone was very ancious to join his school.
but not all good people that join his school, but some of them are bad people whom join the school.
when one day, one of his students went to him and complaint that there's a man punched his face. Huo was not happy with the explaintion, he took revenge.he went to the man who punch his students face and kill that man.
on the same time, the man who punch Huo's students face was celebrating his birthday at that period of time. :'(
2.The Huo’s family wanted an compensation and apology from the movie producers because not all of the FEARLESS scene is real, and it hurts when you tell a story to the world differently.
IT SIMPLY HURTS (!)
3.look no one is perfect in this world (!) and please don't admit that you are no one.(ihatethat)
no matter what you do to save people it doesn't make you a superhero (!)
(ALAMAK !)
please don't act like you are a hero man!
for me..this movie can say its kind of good and kind of bad.
why bad?
because if the younger ones watch this type of movie, this shows tha he can follow and he will not do it as in the proper way.(get what i mean) (want to learn martial arts is not from movies! go to a MARTIAL ARTS SCHOOL lah dehh!!)
such a CHAOS (kanciong) type of movie..
not suitable for ages 10 below (-)..
thats for now.
