About this movie

Master of the "brotherhood" films, award winning director Chang Cheh has always had a good eye for martial art talent and in Invincible Shaolin he re-introduces what was to become known as the The Five Venoms to the world of heroic bloodshed. Chang intelligently weaves a mythical tale of treachery centered around the historic attempts of the Ching Dynasty trying to destroy the Shaolin Monasteries. It's a story of misunderstanding, revenge and doomed heroes who finally realize their error in judgment through the sanctity of their martial arts. The various fighting styles used are choreographed with such amazing precision and insanity, that it's hard to believe that all this psychotic stylish action was shot and made up as they went along. It's marvelous to behold.

Don't be fooled by the high rating. If you want to see authentic shaolin gung fu, choose a Jet Li movie. I have to assume the multiple glowing reviews are fake. Attention google play: fake reviews do nothing but irritate your good customers.

It was short for me and the end fight I thought they would be a match for the bad guys and two survivors run away ..😑 why did they have to make them destroy each other badly when u could have seen shaolin vs imperial guards

I had to post after reading another's particular words... All of Shaw Brothers movies are classics with the band of stellar actors that alot us have watched since we were young boys and girls. No disrespect to Jet Li, I like him and his movies. However, Invincible Shaolin was out way before he...these actors paved his way.✌🏽
