Another stinker from Paul Verhoeven. A promising young scientist tests an invisibility serum on himself and promptly turns into a psychotic pervert who strangely seems to also become nigh on indestructible in a Jason Voorhees style way. Badly written, ugly effects and nonsensically plotted. |

Why does invisibility make people unstable and dangerous. I'd think it'd be fun. Kevin Bacon's naked body. |

Plays like a more violent version of the Invisible Man. Mostly a showcase of special effects, rather than a full fledged film. |

Lots of flashy special effects, but nothing much else. This is a gruesome take on the Invisible Man genre, but the gratuitous nudity and gore can't cover up the lack of interesting characters and silly plot/dialogue. |

Kevin Bacon at his devilish best.... |
|
What would you do if you had the possibility to be invisible? Would you save the world? Or would you...go insane?
Kevin Bacon plays Sebastian Caine, an egotistical but brilliant scientist who is working on a serum to make living things invisible. He works on this project with his ex-girlfriend Linda McKay (Elisabeth Shue) and Matthew Kensington (Josh Brolin) her secret lover and insists on being the first human guinea pig for the project, ever mindful of the glory angle. Problems arise when Sebastian is made invisible and discovers his process to be made visible again failed.
Kevin Bacon always seems to play a great bad guy and it is no difference here when because of his tampering with Nature and his gradual seduction by the power he controls, he finally gets his just desserts when... |

Think You're Alone? Think Again. |

I thought this film was pretty good. Unfortunately, somewhere along the lineit turns in to a predictable B-grade slasher. This could, and should, have been much better than it is. They ran out of ideas and decided to just kill everyone off and have it end in huge explosions, showing a total lack of creativity. The only great thing about this movie is the special effects but it may not be enough to distract the viewer from all the negative points of the movie.
That being said I do care for this film, it's one of my many guility pleasures movies and I'll recommend veiwing it for the action, suspense, and amazing effects for it's time. Even if the movie is lacking in plot. Hollow man is not the worst choice you could make, it delivers most of what you expect from an enjoyable action thril... |
