The Invincible Dragon is a 2019 action-fantasy film directed by [[RealJokeName Fruit Chan]] (YES, that really is his name) starring Zhang Jin and long-time MMA professional Anderson Silva.
Kowloon (Jin) is a fighter-turned-policeman who claims to have encountered a nine-headed dragon as a child, and was inspired by the dragon to become a fighter. When Sinclair (Silva), a former rival of Kowloon he defeated years ago, returns a criminal and serial killer, Kowloon had to stop Sinclair at all costs in a deadly rematch.

--> '''Sinclair''': "Hell, is where you die!"
* ActionPrologue: Kowloon confronting Uncle and his mooks in the opening scene, where he takes them all down, OneManArmy style.
* AllJustADream: The movie plays with this, implying that Kowloon's childhood encounter with the Nine-headed dragon is just a childhood dream his mind perceives as reality, until at the end of the movie [[spoiler: the dragon finally appears and devoures the fleeing Sinclair, proving that Kowloon's childhood memory is RealAfterAll]].
* AnArmAndALeg: Kowloon, after killing off Uncle's thugs in the restaurant / wedding banquet shootout, [[{{Pun}} disarms]] Uncle by shooting his wrist repeatedly. Resulting in Uncle's severed arm flying across the dining room and landing on a table where four guests are tying to eat.
* BaldOfEvil: Sinclair.
* BorrowedCatchphrase: Kowloon and Sinclair shouts, "That's my line!" to each other during their first mano-on-mano confrontation.

--> (minutes later, in the same brawl)
--> '''Kowloon''': "Bring it on, [[PrecisionFStrike asshole]]."
--> '''Sinclair''': "[[SuddenlyShouting THAT'S MY LINE!]]"
* CopKiller: Sinclair, who killed four female policewomen prior to the start of the movie. Most of the film is spent on finding out the mysterious policewomen-killer, which ios later uncovered by Sinclair.
* DeliberatelyMonochrome: Sinclair's past, remembering how his son died from running into the crowded Hong Kong traffic, is filmed through a brown-white filter.
* DestinationDefenestration: Sinclair, at the end of his first fight against Kowloon, ends up being shoved through a tall window where he ends up rolling down an adjacent slope. He gets better.
* FacialHorror: During the rematch between Kowloon and Sinclair in an office, both combatants knocks over a table full of equipment, causing boxes of thumbtacks to be scattered all over the floor. Sinclair managed to knock down Kowloon near to where the tacks are spilled and shoves Kowloon's face on them, and as Kowloon get back on his feet, several thumbtacks are visibly embedded all over his face. Unfazed, he responds by pulling out the tacks one-by-one, and audiences can clearly see the holes on his cheek.
* FatBastard: The triad boss only known as "Uncle", played by tubby actor Lam Suet.
* FiringInTheAirALot: Kowloon, at the end of the film after wrestling Sinclair's pistol from him, decides to fire shots above, behind, below and beside him to intimidate Sinclair to take him on in a fist-to-fist brawl.

*{{Orochi}}: The Nine-headed dragon Kowloon believe he saw as a child invokes a traditional Orochi-like beast. [[spoiler: At the end of the film, it's revealed that the dragon ''really did exist'']].
* RevealShot: During Kowloon's narration of his childhood flashback, he narrates about his encounter with the dragon as a kid, where the beast resembles your average Chinese dragon. And then, Kowloon said it has nine heads, at which point eight additional dragon heads suddenly shows up from behind the first.
* {{Roofhopping}}: Occurs in the scene where Kowloon pursues Jane from her penthouse to balconies and high awnings above city buildings.
* TattooedCrook: Kowloon, after his alleged childhood meeting with the nine-headed dragon, had a tattoo depicting the beast on his biceps. And at the end of the movie, Sinclair have tattoos all over his abs too when he remove his shirt to fight Kowloon.

In the same hall where a wedding was being held.
