Possibly the best creation in human history., 29 marzo 2006

Author: evansac1 da United States

When I first saw this movie, I soiled myself. Not only does it feature my favorite actor Don Niam, it also has my second favorite actor Todd Weinguard as Maniac Gang member #4. This movie contains Don Niam's hair which is probably the most significant thing to ever happen to theater. Ever. It should be required by law that everyone must watch this movie. I will definitely name my first,second, and fourth child Stingray. My third child will be named anus for obvious reasons. Anyways, I highly recommend this movie. If you want to cry, laugh, defecate on yourself, and become erect at the same time, see this movie. Please make a sequel Mr. Ho.

Diabolical! Atrocious! But dag-nabbit it's fun!!, 20 gennaio 2005

Author: Thomas Jolliffe (supertom-3) da Marlow, England

Another epic piece of art from director Godfrey Ho, the man who has directed about 100 films with the word Ninja in the title! This doesn't have ninja in the title but don't be fooled there is plenty of martial arts action. Like his other films this is a shockingly cheap and hilariously bad movie. The acting is especially poor. Leading the movie is the queen of martial arts, her hotness; Cynthia Rothrock (kill me now Cynthia!!). Cynthia does her usual ass kicking routine as she stars as a waitress who also fights illegally for money on the side. When her sister is killed she vows revenge. Rothrock can't really act worth a hill a beans really and she proves that when identifying her sisters body. She looks at the corpse and just as I thought they would have her do the typical action star scowl, clenching of the fist, before running out the building to do damage, she burst into tears. Now you may think "Wow, stretching!" However it is scary. She is so over the top and loud that I was actually frightened (frightened but still being aroused by her presence). Having said that Rothrock is not the worst actor in this picture, in fact she is the best which gives you some indication at the level this film is made. It is like a Troma film without all the gore and female nudity, even though there is a little gore, and a little female nudity (not Rothrock lads!). While Cynthia had her little "where's my academy award?" moments, bad guy Don Niam was atrocious. Niam, sporting the worst, most permed mullet ever seen is so ridiculously cheesy that he merely has to appear on screen for me to laugh manically at him. When he speaks he is even funnier. His face has a kind of "please hit me!" look to it and the way his mullet sways about is very amusing. My brother put it best about ¾ of the way through when he said "I swear that mullet gets bigger in every scene!" I thought that too. There are a few mullets in the film and some fashion that makes this film look very 80's, however it was made in the mid 90's!

Once again, like Ho's other epics, this has some good fights. Particularly a superbly rough fight between Don Niam and John Miller that ends hilariously (it involves a hook and an eye socket but you'll really have to see it.). What I love is the whole cheesiness of B-movies like this. They take it a step beyond your average DTV film and as such something this cheesy is far more entertaining than something plain bad and boring, staring Steven Seagal. To sum up how cheesy and stupid this film is: In the middle of the climactic fight scene between Niam and Miller, they both tear their shirts off (for no good reason) and continue the fight bare chested, yet miraculously they are oiled up to the eye balls. It is an hilariously macho scene that comes across as more homo-erotic, with oily men grabbing and hitting each other, it couldn't have been gayer if they'd have recreated Olly Reed and Alan Bates nude wrestling match. I think there is something Godfrey isn't telling us!

So with ample fist fights and plenty of bad acting, this film has good entertainment values, as well as some excellent fight scenes. Unfortunately no Scorpion kick from Rothrock in this.**

Oh man this is bad..., 1 agosto 2001

Author: (ableiman@sas.upenn.edu) da Philadelphia, US

This is the worst movie I have ever seen. I felt compelled to write this review however, not because I think the film should be avoided, but on the contrary, I believe everyone should own a copy of "Undefeatable (that barely even sounds like a grammatically correct word)." The plot, the acting, the fighting, and the lines (oh my goodness the lines are great) are so far below even your average C- film that combined, they create a comprehensively miserable whole. Go out and rent this video, buy a case of Pabst Blue Ribbon, call up your buddies, and sit down for what might be one of the more memorable movie experiences of your life.

Undefeatable is Unbelievable!, 16 settembre 2004
Author: noone2082 da USA

Rarely does one experience in the world of movie making a work that both shocks and enthralls. Undefeatable is a powerhouse. As is its sexy cast of butt kickin' martial arts ladies. The setting, University of Maryland gymnasium. The script, poetic. The action, jolting. The production, one that elicits comparison to a Lord of the Rings. The producers certainly make use of technology utilizing action photography techniques used in mega budget films like the Matrix.

Although not recommended for children, this feel good cinematic adventure gives new meaning to the integration of performance art and dismemberment.

Bravo! Rumors are swirling about the sequel 'Undefeatable II - Return of the Eyeballs'.

Do they get better?, 20 gennaio 2003
Author: Capt. Scholten da The High Seas

In a strange coincidence, I was also up at 2 AM when I caught this movie. In fact, I just finished it, and was so excited about, I had to get right on here and leave my comments. I, on the other hand, found this movie great! Undefeatable had Don Niam in his first and only starring role, and let me tell you, his eyes and hair took control of his character, and they left with me memories that I shall charish forever. Every line in this film was spoken in a very unique way. And on a final note, I shall now use this movie as undeniable proof that everyone knows kung fu.

Don Niam is god...., 12 aprile 2006

Author: kidanthony138 da Chicago

This movie is in a class all its own and it finished dead last in its class. What can I say besides this movie is so bad it rocks harder than twenty exploding suns!! Don Niam's (stingray) glorious frizzy mullet, horridly hilarious lines, and chiseled shiny pecs make this movie a hit. The Martal Arts is slow and retarded, EVERY character is so stupid it transcends anything known to movie history. The plot line is so ridiculous you might think that this is a porno script BUT ITS NOT! these people are serious and that is what makes it so wonderfully bad that it's great!If you're looking for a serious martial arts movie don't get this, you have to understand that this movie is like plan 9 from outer space. A movie so bad that it has gone down into movie history. THIS IS THE PLAN 9 OF MARTIAL ARTS MOVIES!! Seriously you will laugh so hard you'll vomit!

take it from an expert, 17 maggio 2005

Author: heavymole da United States

I have seen this fine film 10-15 times, and I will probably see it 10-15 more. Godfrey Hall (aka Godfrey Ho) directs a great ensemble cast to great heights. There are many career bests here, most notably Don Niam as Paul "Stingray" Taylor. As a true fan of this movie, I have done research on many of the actors, as most are not well known. It has come to light that Don Niam is originally from, and has since returned to, Akron, Ohio. He has opened multiple dojos that have failed and is now running one that is located behind a Subway. He trained the man who invented spinning. He has signs on the windows reminding you to take off your shoes and "No Drinks on the Mat". He is a true star. His performance alone is enough to satisfy any moviegoer's thirst for entertainment. This is best displayed in the scene where he spraypaints two red streaks in his hair. The acting is amazing and the story grande. The soundtrack supplied by Todd M. Hahn is exquisite and certainly noteworthy, even in this sea of wonder that is the movie Undefeatable. John Miller as Nick DeMarco is another brilliant casting choice. He's a tough cop with a good heart, and he doesn't need a reason to take someone to jail or take money from them. His delivery of the line, "What, you don't like tea?" should be viewed sparingly, as it is known to send one into a rapturous state. Last, but by no means least, is the beautiful Cynthia Rothrock. Her performance, thought by some to be out-shined with her use of hook swords (here making their first U.S. appearance), is direct and understated; carrying the movie along for what seems like too short of a running time. There are many other great actors, characters, and quotes in this film, and I will write of them in pt. 2 of my undefeatable review.

What A Load of Wonderful Bull!, 28 marzo 2007

Author: darkglobe87 da United Kingdom

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.

Literally the Best Bad Film you will ever see., 31 dicembre 2006

Author: Faith_From_Chaos da United States

*** This comment may contain spoilers ***

let me preface this review by saying i have seen a lot of bad movies in my time...hell, i even own you got served and from justin to kelly...but this, this is the work of the gods. Don Niam's work as "stingray" is the worst acted performance in the history of film. the guy is bad even when he isn't saying anything. hahahaha. there is little to no character development, a disturbing rape scene, and awesomely bad fight choreography. the ending sequence is the stuff dreams are made of, and you may have already seen it on youtube billed as the worst fight scene ever.

honestly, track it down, get some friends together, and enjoy the worst film in history.

After Citizen Kane I didn't believe it will happen, 25 giugno 2008

Author: Brundlefly22 da Telepod

*** This comment may contain spoilers ***

*THIS REVIEW MAY CONTAIN MINOR SPOILERS* Undefeatable is by far the greatest piece of art I have ever seen. The story is very original , touching and disturbing. The greatest actor ever Don Niam plays a kick boxer whom his wife left. He tracked her down and killed her and after that moment he started to rape , kill and take eyes from every women that has a red hair. The very talented and sexy actress Cynthia Rothrock plays a gang leader who wants to earn money for her sister so that she could go to collage. Stingray kills her sister and she wants him dead. She teams up with the always great John Miller who plays a police officer better than Mel Gibson and Kristi's love. Together they track down Stingray in a warehouse but he menages to escape. They however find Stingray in a storage area and have a memorable and by far the best fight ever. Stingray gets killed after losing both eyes. At the end of the movie Kristi tells her sister on her funeral that they got him.

The cast has more stars then the night sky and also my favorite actor Clark plays Eagle Gang Member #5. The music is top notch and placed John Williams on a shame , the directing is flawless and Mr. Ho deserved an Oscar , the acting is a word for itself , Don Niam is with Jack Nicholson the greatest actor ever and John(no its no Frank or George) Miller plays a better police officer then Mel Gibson. The movie is full of legendary one liners who easily putt Terminator and Predator to shame , lines like "We'll keep an EYE out for you, Stingray." are so well delivered that you don't know if its acting or did the actor said that and didn't know that he was filmed. Also the haircuts putt Elvis on shame , the costumes are top notch and deserved an Oscar while the Special effects have no CGI and are completely old school. Conclusion: Undefeatable is the best movie ever and should be seen every day. If I could I would give it 69/10 , but I can't so now its just 10/10.
