after disappearing for about a year, Kenix returned to the screen & joined Roger Kwok in a Christian movie, Fearless. For those fans who are interested, Fearless is now available for sale at Yesasia in DVD/VCD formats. my opinions and reviews below contain SPOILERS, so don't read if you don't want to.
the movie's plot is only mediocre, a type of movie that i don't think i'll watch a 2nd time, or 3rd time even though it has my beloved Kenix. despites the dull religious theme, the movie has some interesting aspects to look at. Kenix plays a very refreshing role as the wife of a homosexual husband. she has no other purpose in life besides taking care of and supporting her dearest husband.
however, her ordinary life takes a 180 degree turn when she one night witnesses his infidelity not with another woman, but a man. her husband is arm in arm, dancing with another homosexual, and lost in their own world. when he finally looks up & sees the shock on his wife's face, he feels so shameful that he doesn't dare to look at her in the eyes. both Kenix & Roger of course deliver excellent performances in this scene. i really cried along with Kenix when she not only discovers that her husband's cheating, he's also a homosexual (or should i say, bi-sexual). she runs away and vows that she will abort their child she's carrying.
however, as the movie's theme centers around religious hope and life optimism, Kenix of course will still keep her child, and bring faith back into her life by providing happiness to other people. she starts doing charity work and helping the needy. her life is simple again, but this time, more meaningful.
Roger looks very handsome in this movie. Kenix looks very pretty as always, but too skinny. i wish she can gain more weight. she looks certainly better now as Fearless was filmed roughly half a year ago. the overall plot gets 1 star out of 5, but for Kenix's fans, she's worth both the time and money ^___^
