Trivia:
Herzog claimed that if a character was giving a speech to a crowd of people, he would place a suitably-sized crowd there, even though they would not be seen by the camera, claiming, "You can't fake addressing a crowd of people that large." more
Goofs:
Factual errors: The real Marta Faria was a talented strong-woman in her own right; she could wrap a steel bar around her arm and once supported the front legs of a large elephant on her shoulders. She was not the slender pianist seen in the movie. more

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. ****
