Anyone watched Fearless (1993)?

Just finished it and it's one of those rare movies where I don't get it at all. Usually when there's a movie I don't fully get I at least understand what it's trying to convey, or what the overall theme is, even if it doesn't work for me.

Here there's literally nothing I caught on to. At first I thought it was about a man who became mentally broken after traumatic event, but his altruistic behavior showed that wasn't the case.

Then I thought it's about a man who lost all fear to embody all that is good and become a Christlike savior figure, but his abandonment of family and romance with other woman proved that wrong.

Then towards the end I believed it was a Jacob's Ladder type story and it was a dying man reliving what he could've done earlier in his life, but quite obviously what we saw wasn't a dream.

Do you have an interpretation?

There's definitely something that's attempted to be told here, but I just can't figure it. I feel it's gonna be one of those movies where I'll have to rewatch it a couple times and then see a 30 minute video essay to understand what the point was.
