The human behind the superpower
5 December 2022
I rewatched this movie last night and it still holds up. It's a really engaging tale about what would really be if one became invisible. All the logical problems arise, and the human behind the "superpower" becomes more human than ever. The look of the bandages and black trenchcoat is a nice homage to the original THE INVISIBLE MAN from 1933. Great special effects, although the direction from Carpenter doesn't really shows.

I'm not a follower of Chevy Chase but he plays his part with a lot of conviction, sometimes you can suffer alongside him. Daryl Hannah is boring and looks like a lifeless doll through the movie, but she serves her purpose. Sam Neill is awesome as usual, I can honestly say that he carries the whole movie. I wish there were more movies like this, but with other powers. HANCOCK made a good try but failed miserably due to a convoluted script.
