O Dragão Invencível

This movie is a Hong Kong production and the DVD comes with a Cantonese version. All the main characters of this movie are from all over the world but not Hong Kong. Anderson Silva is Brazilian American. Kevin Cheng and Juju Chan are Chinese American from San Francisco and New York. Annie Liu is from Taiwan and Jin Zhang is from China. None of them are native Cantonese speakers. Their dialogues in Cantonese are so funny and not one person can speak fluent Cantonese. Skip the Cantonese version.

In short: Not recommended, not a good production overall. One of those three stars is for the budget which partially seems to have been there, one is for costume/backdrop and stagework, i would detract 1 for both martial arts choreography (overly complicated spinkicks and pushkicks that would never work or be used) put on that horrible effects and u got a really bad movie. This can barely be compared to the old 70's and 80'skung fu movies. This is bad, the only saving grace is the plotline which first denotes the dragon as metaphorical and keeps the interest not fully dead.

It is average action movie. Though story is interesting script is some messy makes us to loose interest. There is no shocking suspense for serial killing. This part is so weak. Other hand leading action star Jin Zhang does not impress us as his previous movies like 'Kill Zone', ' Grandmaster' etc. He is impressive martial arts actor especially for his flying actions. Lady yoga trainer is another attraction for this spiritless story plot. Her fight with Jin in train is main interesting part in the movie as me. Over all movie is once time watchable not with expectation of perfect action movie.

Max Zhang is always impressive! His fighting is beautiful in its grace and brutality! I never tire of watching him fight. The story line is good for an action flick. More impressive is his English! I know it's hard to get the pronunciation down. Max Zhang did a good job with that. He was understandable. I wish the writers had done a better job with the English parts. Not that they were any more cheesy than American action flick writing.

I gave this a 6 because Max Zhang is Amazing despite some of the bad writing!

I was expecting as good from Max Zhang. Action scenes from the actor of Master Z was not bad. But then, the real story of what the director is bringing to the fans is totally out of the line. I would not understand what they are trying to mean by showing the 9 headed dragon and also tattoos display. Anyway, I would opt out of any films by this director already.
