Cast Member: Yuen Shun-Yi

‘Born Invincible’ contains what many consider to be Carter Wong’s strongest performance; playing the crazed Chi Kung master, Wong enjoys every minute of his scenery chewing role.

Yuen Woo-Ping and his brothers fill the film with stunning ‘drunken’ conflicts and duels.

It’s very strange how such a well-polished and highly entertaining film has come under such criticism from some Hong Kong film fans.

No one who claims to be a Hong Kong action cinema fan or a true Chan fan should be without a copy of this movie.

Yuen Woo Ping weaves more choreographed magic into the narrative and allows the entire cast to show what they can do.

Avid fans of Chow’s humour can also rest assured as this is one of his sharpest films.

Anyone who appreciates quality choreography, well executed fight sequences and a well told story will love this and will definitely want to own it!

Hark combines a well-paced and beautifully photographed narrative with strong characters and exciting fight action.

This film has been elevated to cult status in recent years and has become a huge favourite with a world-wide audience. All of this is thoroughly deserved.

Without doubt this is a powerhouse film that will satisfy even the most demanding fans of the Jade Screen. Worth tracking down at all costs.

Fantastical ingenuity, crazy comedy, outlandish practical effects, and hard-hitting martial arts are thrown together in perhaps one of the best zany action flicks to come from the Golden Era 80s.

Unfortunately, for veterans of old-school flicks, the choreography on display here is nothing new, and a lot of it takes place in the dark, which makes it less than easy to follow.
