Customer Rating:
Summary: Horrible picture quality does not help out this below average movie. It also doesn't help that it is badly full screened.
Comment: The movie starts out good enough with Chang Yi playing his usual white haired villain role and makes it clear that he is the king of stick fighters and looks to take down all others. Don Wong Tao plays the young playboy who shows to be a wimp after years of negleting his kung fu practice. When his 3 uncles hear about Chang Yi going around taking down stick schools they send Wong Tao away so that he can learn kung fu and become a man. Wong Chi Sang is good as one of the 3 uncles but the movie is just overall horrible. The comedy doesn't work very well, the fighting is not great, and the story overall is just kind of there and doing nothing until people fight. This movie is actually very similiar to 'Shaolin Iron Claws', only a little bit better and they fight with sticks instead of fighting open handed. After sucking me in with Chang Yi's good polework in his first scene, I had a lot of trouble sitting through the rest of the movie until they finally fight again at the end. This fight I have to say was actually very exciting though very short. It is so good that it almost bumps the movie up to a 3 but the horri-awful picture quality and it's terrible full screen presentation almost makes me give this movie the lowest rating possible of 1 star. Of course the DVD is from Video Asia so I shouldn't have expected too much.

Summary: Old "skool' kung fu!!
Comment: After seeing the hype right here on amazon,,I rushed out to get this flick,,,,,it o.k,,,3 stars at best!! However, grossly over rated in my opinion. Of all the weapons you see in old school kung movies,,,there 's nothing special about stick fighting kung fu!! There 's no question the story is good,,the fight scenes good,,,however, you see one stick fights, and you see them all. Honestly,,after the first stick fight, there were no more suprizes in the flick, it got really boaring and predictable,,it only seemed and feel like the same scenes over and over repeating itself!!

Summary: Shaolin Invincible Sticks -
Comment: Hey, another movie with one of those white-haired villans that must be "ELIMINATED." How did I guess that? Loved this flick also. Fighting scenes "tough" - stick matches "rough" - I can't complain at all. Overdubs - not bad. I can live with some bad overdubs if the flick is "tight."
Watch closely as this white-haired villan goes from school to school challenging and destroying anyone who knows stick fighting. This guy is really good with his stick/pole and it's very difficult for others to beat him. What is kind of bizzare about this one is that anyone who knows stick fighting is his enemy. I like this flick so much that I transferred it to my PDA and watch it sometimes at work. Some of the stick fighting scenes will have you seriously cracking up. You will surely play a few of these scenes over and over again!
By all means please see my other reviews so you won't get stuck with worthless Kung Fu [...] that's not worth the disc it was copied to. The plot keeps you awake throughout! Definetly in my top 5%. You wont go wrong with this one at all.
