10/10
It grows on you
16 October 2005
Invincible: ****

When first watching this film, my initial reaction was that it just seemed awkward. (the acting/dialog) After a short period of time I began to realize that everything just fits right. The main character is naive and awkward because he just is, and the film really begins to grow on you. Its surprisingly touching and just beautiful to watch. It has all the elements of a Herzog film, although at first it really doesn't feel like its on par with his other work, but everything works just how he wants it to. If you can stick through the initial awkward acting then you will be pleasantly surprised and well rewarded. A beautiful film with some wonderfulscenes which really stand out. Most notably the hypnosis scene,and the brilliant acting by Tim Roth. ****
