I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
... View MoreGripping story with well-crafted characters
... View MoreAlthough it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
... View MoreExcellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
... View MoreIts so bad its good. Recommend you watch it with friends and/ or adult beverages. Bad acting. Bad filming. Bad plot. Bad script. Bad effects. its truly one for the record books.Its so bad its good.It follows a vengeful fighter who swares revenge on his teachers killer. once he kills him he is conciderd the greatest figher of all, therefore he is challenged by others till his family is attacked and he is forced to fight what seems to be his final fight. The death toll is sky high with Chan killing about 100 men in one battle. But besides the over all slaughter, the martial arts seemed slow, and there were no fancy techniques or shapes, it just seemed like a bunch of angry drunk guys kicking and punching. It's worth watching just to say you saw it, but i don't think it's classic material. then again, it may be what your lookin for, all you can do is watch:)
... View MoreI first watched Invincible Super Chan when I was roughly 14 years old, and it was one of the earlier wuxia films I bought. I've seen many, many more now, and yet years later I always go back to this one. Maybe its the fact that it was banned in 34 countries. Maybe its the fact that human beings are randomly brutalized in multiple forms of bloody dismemberment. I think what really keeps me interested are the special effects: for 1970 this one really is quite technically impressive. Chan seamlessly jumps off cliffs while throwing bombs at hordes of baddies, he teleports, and his arch nemesis even surfs across a river on a flag! It ultimately ends with him beheading him, and yet somehow his head keeps functioning while its on the sand! How'd they do it?!
... View MoreThe packaging says this was banned in Asia for its violence; however, what we have here in the American dubbed release appears to be a censoring re-edit, because I've seen worse violence in films, and the editing in action sequences here seem intended to pare away pro-longed blood-letting.Not that the uncensored edits are any much better; still, I continue to hope that one day I will be able to see this film in all its original pristine gore.How bad is this film, just as a film? well, the hero and his wife are standing at the grave of the hero's teacher at sunset - at least, the painted backdrop behind them appears to be that of the setting sun - how do we know it's a painted backdrop? because when the hero walks in front of it, the spotlight casts his shadow ON the sun! They just don't make suns like they used to, I guess.Actually, one has to get into a kind of weird "Mack Sennett meets Tsui Hark" kind of groove to enjoy this film. It's definitely a silent movie that somehow got made in the sound-film era; and it's definitely a wild wire-works ride through the realm of magical sword-fighting in ancient China - you can even see the wires attached to mannequins flying about pretending to be sword-fighters.Oh, well, I might as well admit that I just have a soft spot for cinematic moments when people are killed by having rocks shoved down their throats.Eight stars for entertainment value, but only for real connoisseurs.
... View MoreMany will condemn this movie for its poor quality, bad editing and sporadic plot; however, those who do cannot understand the beauty of a truly bad movie. This is a truly bad movie. So bad that I have seen it a half dozen times.Somebody killed Chan's teacher. Chan wants revenge. The only thing that stands between himself and that noble goal is about five hundred people, variously armed. After he gets his revenge, he still has to defeat a man brandishing a slinky.Nothing is good about the movie: Chan is a non-dynamic character whose fighting ability is less Jackie Chan than it is Jackie Onasis. It looks as if, at a certain point in the movie, the editor simply gives up and goes home, leaving editing in the capable hands of pure random chance. The women are as ugly as mud fences that have been painstakingly sculpted to look like really ugly Chinese women. The villains are gay, frail or just plain stupid.But, like a cryptogram, you realize that there must be something hidden in this movie...something deep...the key to the meaning of life, perhaps.I let my twelve year old watch it for the first time this weekend. Between the two of us and several watchings, we should get it figured out...
