I really don't get the hype.

From my favorite movies..

Admirable film.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

The plot was too obvious, plain and the way all the symbolism was used was overt. This is what I hate the most about movies. I cannot see the point for making this movie. The characters were not developed and there was no chemistry between them. The only chemistry built was between the character portrayed by Billy Zane and the other characters. Terrible acting, apart from Billy Zane, and no I am not a fan of him. He was the only one who did the best job on this movie and put effort and talent in it. Oh man, and all the stunt wires clearly visible, as if the stunt coordinator was too lazy to notice. I give 3 because despite plenty of trash movies on TV (e.g. "The Hangover") "The Invicibles" is the movie worth watching and +1 is for Billy Zane's good job. Basically, I can say this movie is about New Age movement.

I was drawn to this movie by the fact Jet Li was involved with it. As a big fan of his work I know he always pulls off a great movie. The storyline seemed interesting as well, combining my favourites of action and make-believe.The overall theme of Good and Love overcoming all evil is, one might say, an overused plot line but this had great potential. It was focused around two groups, the evil Shadowmen and the Good Elements. The Elements though were super evolved humans, chosen before birth but in a twist they were lead by a reformed Shadowman, Os. Not just any reformed Shadowman either but the most black hearted of them all, who killed one of the elements and best friend to the leader of the Shadowmen.The basic story is the Shadowmen want to destroy the earth to return home and Os has just 6 days to locate and train the remaining 4 elements to stop him. However it was poorly done. The fight scenes were brief and sloppy as well as being few and far between. There was too much dialogue in this movie and the message of Love overcoming all evil was pounded into you from the first second and quite frankly made you sick of the whole concept. By the end I wanted the Shadowmen to win just to stick it to Os, who came across as a tree-hugging hippie type character.Luckily I only bought this for a couple of quid but I am shocked that Jet Li even came within 1000 ft of this movie. I was severely disappointed with this and suspect that it would have been more enjoyable had I seen it a few years ago when I was unable to judge or care about how good a film was presented.I would only recommend you watch this if it costs you nothing to do so. A severe let down.

I expected to see a film closely related to Mortal Combat, and it appeared to have some of those elements, i.e., Fantasy martial arts, Good vs. Evil "end-times" saga. How can one not enjoy a good 'character-transformation' film? One could criticize the script for leaps in logic, but it is a fantasy film, so rationalism can kind of be thrown out. If Zen concepts are foreign to you, Os's circular parables will probably be nothing more than gibberish. Unless you're watching a documentary, most films are entertainment, not meant for some deep, life altering knowledge. This film was entertaining, and, it had some things to contemplate. Zane's interpretation of the evil-turned-good-raptured-superhuman character is both fun and "deep". If you've had too much of the wire-work Hong Kong films of late, you might enjoy this film for a change.

WARNING: MAY CONTAIN SPOILER INFORMATION FOR THOSE WHO HAVE NOT WATCHED THIS MOVIE BEFORE First off I give this movie 10 out of 10 stars. I liked this movie the first time I saw it on TV. I watch it every chance I get. I like the graphics and how they are similar to the ones used in "The Matrix". It tells of four ordinary people who are offered a chance at new lives when their old ones would have led to bad ends. They are each an element of the earth and have to learn to use their powers in becoming protectors of life. They have to defeat the ones who would destroy all life by uniting their strengths and powers together.I liked watching how they learn to work together and learning about the characters life stories. I also think their supernatural powers are cool since they can do things with them.
