The 1940's Woman
5 October 2022
I can't help but poke fun at the gender issues on display in the movie. The first two entries are about a man turning invisible, going mad, and then becoming a murderer. I can imagine the producers asking themselves, "What adventures will the invisible woman get into?" "Well since it is a woman, clearly she can't be a crazy killer. So, this film is going to be a romantic comedy. She will be a fashion model, and when she goes invisible, she is concerned with how messed up her hair is."

So yes, although the last two invisible movies were horrors, this one is a romantic comedy. I give credit to Universal's "invisible person" franchise, because each entry is distinct from the previous.

All that being said, there are some very funny bits in this movie. There are some painfully dumb moments, but still some legitimate laughs, and not just at the movie's expense. The movie has a fair amount of slapstick but does not use Shemp to his full potential.

Thus far, this is also the most technically sound of the franchise. The invisible effects in this movie are top notch.

Missed opportunity, the tagline of this movie really should have been..."it was love before first sight".
