Johnny Strong is government agent Cam Devore who must stop an experimental maniac Brock Cortez (Marko Zaror) who has gone crazy after scientists revive his body with nanotechnology. The best scene here occurs when the scientists prove that Cortez is indestructible by slashing his throat open and then watching as the nano particles seal the gash and Cortez is as good as new again. Eventually, he breaks out of confinement at this clandestine Black Ops testing site in Thailand. Clocking in at 92 minutes, "Invincible" gets by on bits and pieces, like the throat slashing scene. When Cam catches up with the AWOL Cortez, they tangle in a fight that leaves Cam a broken man. Predictably, the scientists shoot him up with the same nanotechnology so he can go toe to toe with this behemoth guy. Writer & director Daniel Zirilli spices up the action when Cortez abducts Cam's wife, Michelle (May Myat Noe) and takes her hostage because he needs to replenish the forces within him that provide him with his super human power. You see, you can shoot holes in him, but the nanotechnology enables him to heal himself as he is virtually indestructible. "Invincible" reminded me of the Chuck Norris actioneer "Silent Rage." Not bad for what it is, and comparisons to "Universal Soldier" are inevitable. There is a dire lack of comic relief in this straightforward but low-budget thriller that sat on the shelf for a while before it was released.
