Summary: KUNG FU EXTRAVAGANZA
Review: Born Invincible must be the most underrated kung fu flick. Kung fu fans never mention this one with the other great classics. This movie is a true old school classic. It has "great fighting" scenes..many of them. It is hilarious. You will laugh every time you hear Carter Wong (who is the tai chi master) speak. Years of training tai chi made his hair white and voice high pitch. He also laughs every time he kills someone. Born invincible has every thing you like in old school kung fu... easily 5 STARS!!!!
$ well spend!

Summary: An epic martail arts piece!!
Review: Carter Wong is amazing as the invincible Tai Chi master. He wallops all his opponents, and as if that was not enough, he draws a symbol with his leg when fighting. Lo Lieh is his colleague and they are trying to wipe out a martial arts school led by Jack Long & Mark Long. The fight scenes were quite decent, but I did not like the way it ended. The good guys were by far no match for the bad guys. This is definitely a movie to keep for any wutang afficionado. Also check out Carter Wong in 18 bronzemen.

Summary: Oops.
Review: 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.

Summary: Kung-Fu Weirdness.
Review: Is this film a little bit strange? I'm not a fan of Kung-Fu films per se, but this must be among the most ridiculous ever made. First, great fighting, with brilliantly implausible sound effects, and funny cartoon-y characters as well. The main bad guy, though, will crease you up. For some reason he speaks and laughs like an old lady in distress. It makes the film impossible to take seriously. Also, the plot and the final twist are very well worked, so that the whole movie is like a guessing game for both the viewer and the good characters. It's not classic film-making at all, but for a non martial arts fan I liked it.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Laughing right along with the main villian!!
Review: This movie was amazing! Starring Jack Long (7grandmasters), Mark Long (Ghost face killah) as the good guys facing off against Lo lieh, and the invincible tai chi master Carter Wong. Amazing fight scenes, great story, and Carter Wong in his best role as the white haird high piched killer. If you collect Kung fu films and you don't have this one then your collection is not at all complete. A martial arts Must have.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: They don't make movies like this anymore!!
Review: This movies is one of the best Kung-fu films that I have seen changed over to DVD. The plot is excellent. A master of the art of invincibility decides that he wants to rule the Kung-fu world in a small province, but students of a murdered master see things differently. "Must" have movie for any true Kung-fu collection!!!
