Leofwine_draca UNDEFEATABLE is a highly schlock chop socky epic brought to us from the man behind all those godawful '80s ninja films, Godfrey Ho. This time around Mr. Ho is masquerading under the name 'Godfrey Hall' but a quick browse of any scene from the movie will reveal that it is one and the same guy; the clumsy editing, cheesy, over-the-top acting, hilarious fight scenes and thudding music could have come straight from the likes of NINJA TERMINATOR. As a film, UNDEFEATABLE is a mess, often hilarious when trying to be serious, and utterly unfunny when trying to be funny. Saying that, for bad film enjoyability, you can't really get much better.The film has not one, not two, but three starring martial artists leading the cast, with lots of supporting fighters in minor roles. Cynthia Rothrock takes the limelight and seems to be dressed in one extremely tight-fitting costume after another, so no complaints from this particular viewer. Rothrock has never looked better and she's also great in the fight scenes, although the actress appears to have been doubled in a few stunt shots. The male cop in the film is played by John Miller, a bulky weightlifter who flexes his pecs when he's not on a case. Finally, taking the bad acting award is Don Niam as the psychotic serial killer; with his '80s mullet and OTT facial gurning, Niam is a delight to behold and must go down in history as one of the worst performers of all time.The film is pretty unpleasant and there are one too many scenes of women being tortured and killed for my liking; the focus is on rape, naked women being tied up, and sadistic violence. However it's all so cheesy that you can't really take any of it too seriously. I mean, come on, the bad guy keeps people's eyeballs in his fish tank, how can any film with that plot twist expect to be taken seriously? Production values are low and the acting often laughable; on the other hand, the fight scenes are plentiful and, it has to be said, a lot of fun.Rothrock occupies most of the fighting time in her staged brawls between other champion gang fighters. These are good, but not as good as Niam's battles against various unfortunates; in one battle in a car park, he beats up a karate champion and pops both of his eyeballs right across the parking lot, before tossing his body from the first-storey balcony! Gee, nice. Niam's extended battle with Rothrock towards the film's close has a real sense of urgency and imminent death which is hard to achieve. However, the best fight scene is, as usual, the final one, as Niam takes on Miller in a bought to the death, leading to the two cheesiest lines in history. Although the villain's demise is a clear rip-off of the Stallone flick COBRA, it ends the film on a cheesy high and'll have you reaching for the rewind button on your remote. "See ya!"

andymcc_80 I'll start by saying that his film is awful, the acting is bad, the script is non-existent and the action well that's bad too, but I haven't laughed so much in a long time. If you watch this film looking for a great martial arts film you'll be disappointed, if however you're someone that loves 'so bad it's good' type films then this one will become a favourite. The actors(and I use the term loosely) were all clearly picked because they could fight, which seems pointless when you see how bad the fight choreography is, the delivery of some of the lines is hysterical and will have you rolling on the floor. The fights which should be a saving grace are hopeless, they kept showing close up slow motion shots which would normally show brutal hits (films like Ong Bak did this to great effect) but here they only show the actors stopping punches with inches to spare or the faces of people trying(and failing) to show pain. I got this DVD for £3 and it was worth every penny, I laughed until I cried , rewound to watch parts again and again, yes the film's bad but it's the perfect definition of 'so bad it's good'Buy it, watch it, try not to pee yourself laughing :-)

leonardconstantin61 i've saw a different version of this movie called BLOODY MARY KILLER which is different in 3 cases than UNDEFEATABLE: 1.the movie starts with Cynthia rothrock using a sword to let us know how good is she at the demonstrations with weapons 2.it is a fight scenes at the beginning involving Cynthia rothrock and robin shou which not appears on undefeatable 3.that scene when john miller was telling Cynthia that he knows who killed her sister and after a few seconds Cynthia laughs and she was asking miller if they can take her car this scene is different on Asian edition was cuted a lil' bit so the laugh and the idea of Cynthia to take her car were cut off.so i think there 3 good improvements to the movie these 3 changes and i think that made the film better.i have BLOODY MARY KILLER from a friend.i think you'll like this version better

darkglobe87 I simply HAD to comment this film.After purchasing a DVD of this for only £0.99, I have probably had the most amazing experience of a cinematic-nature in my life.Anyhoo.. I didn't know DVD's like these existed! Used to the shiny, Hollywood blockbusters I was quite shocked.Godfrey Hall II is a legend! His choice of cringe-worthy actors, awful choreography, even worse cameras and crummy film are effective in making a fairly entertaining film! Don Niam should be awarded for the bravery shown just for appearing on camera (oh, the hairstyle....) Cynthia Rothrock isn't the world's worst actor, and is actually quite attractive, but just doesn't seem to fit in, in my view.
