5 out of 5 stars GREAT MOVIE ..COPP THIS !!!!!!.......2006-05-28

funny thing is , that carter wong always playes the hero in all his movies .Apart from this where he is probably one of the best baddies ever to be ion a kung fu movie . Along with him the other bad guy is the top notch actor lo leigh . Leaving the lung brothers as the heroes. So the top actors are indeed the bad guys in this movie , they are menacing and unbeatable due to mastering tai chi style kung fu . The school who are under threat try to revenge their masters death , but all fail apart from one. Great action[yuen wo ping] and brilliant plot. The movie might drag on at times , but the last fight scene is fullfilling.

5 out of 5 stars Pretty Good.......2006-05-22

This is movie is of the "old school" variety, made before the current crop (or [...]) of martial arts films. Old school meaning that the actors are pretty much performing the techniques for real with little or no special effects to make them do "Crouching Tiger-like" flying. Old school also means a lot more gymnastic moves which made these films so likeable in the first place. There's a lot of fine fight choreography on the level of "7 Grandmasters" and "Mystery of Chess Boxing (aka Ninja Checkmate)". The DVD quality itself is bad though when compared to the quality of "7 Grandmasters" but it seems there's no other choice. Maybe some day it'll be remastered but until then, this is still worth the purchase price.

3 out of 5 stars This a kung-fu classic.......2005-09-28

While i won't give it more than a three star rating , it's definitely a kung-fu classic , the stars in this martial arts adventure aren't as skillful as stars like Samo hung ,jackie chan , gordon lui chia hui, joesph kuo, Lo leih , john lui and the shaw brother cast, none the less this was a well executed story along the triditional "i will get revenge for my master you bastard" kung -fu stories.
The action was great and i must say this is the best i have ever seen Carter wong (by now you should realize i am not a fan of his) for the true martial collector this is great piece to add to your collection , however i advise you to buy Fist of the white lotus and the invinsible amour , The kid with the golden arm and The magnificent ruffians, i am a collector these are a must have to your invincibility collection, laterz folks enjoy not getting cut laters.

3 out of 5 stars Lots of choppy editing mars an otherwise worthwhile film........2005-06-12

This film features some great talent ranging from director Joseph Kuo to action brothers Jack and Mark Long to Carter Wong in one of his more memorable roles. "But still..." there is AN AWFUL LOT OF CHOPPY EDITING during the fight scenes that really mars the film. This type of jump cutting (the pulling out of frames to speed up the action) is very distracting, and one would think completely unneccessary considering the cast involved. It's a shame, as this could have been one of the all-time greats, but the editing flaws simply cannot be ignored. As it is, the characters and story, along with some untampered action, balance things out just enough to still make BORN INVINCIBLE a pretty entertaining martial arts movie. In fact some still do consider it a classic. Maybe, you'll be one of them. Recommended-flaws and all.

3 out of 5 stars Oops........2004-07-14

I mistook this for another one of those "invincible white monk villain with the single weak spot" movies. It was not the one I was looking for, but it was ok, not outstanding like one of the old Gordon Liu or Venoms stories. I'm sure it was really good in its time. Ok picture quality. Ok DVD bonus features. Trailer is awesome.
