 I was going to try and do some cheesy invisible gag if this movie was crap, but it's not, so I'm not going to. Ooh! That's a hot mug, guys! Hey guys, this is my review for The Invisible Man, the recent, recent, recent remake of the H.G. Wells novel. Last time that they really did it just sorely about the character was Hollow Man, which had Evil Kevin Bacon in it. This movie, I thought, was going to be shit. There was a lot of dumb stuff that they showed in the trailers. Not all that stupid shit out because this movie is actually not as stupid as it should be. This movie actually has a bit of elements from Sleeping with the Enemy, that Julia Roberts movie, because the film starts off with Elizabeth Moss escaping from her kind of controlling husband. And this opening scene is actually very well done. It's very tense. It already establishes the tension and kind of the filmmaking tactics that they use later on when The Invisible Man does start to appear. I actually enjoyed the opening. It's probably one of the most intense parts of the film. Everything from her leaving the house to her getting away is just nail-biting. It's really, really good. There is some little bit of downtime when they find out that her husband supposedly died. Seeing as I know a little bit about the funeral service now, because my fiancé is a funeral director, there should have been an executor, or there should have been a lot more paperwork signed, than just, yeah, he's dead. Here's money. I feel like there should have been a little bit more from that. This film does ask you to suspend your disbelief at times. Not anywhere near as badly as it should. The idea of The Invisible Man, back in the time that when H.E.L.s wrote it, was truly horrifying, because there was no way you could really tell. You would just be considered a specter. You could be considered a ghost. Doing this story in modern time with modern technology, being able to kind of oust The Invisible Man at almost every single corner. The director of this film, Leo Wall, I can't pronounce his name, he actually does a pretty good job of pretty much answering those questions as they come up. Does he get every single situation correctly in terms of giving a proper answer as to how he's still able to act in the way he is? Not entirely. Does he make up for that with really intense filmmaking? Yes, he does. His camera work is done exceptionally well, as it constantly kind of makes you feel like there's another person in the room. These slow pants and these rack focuses that make you feel like there's supposed to be something in the room, but there isn't, but is there? And that's the primary focus of what this film was trying to be, was trying to make you feel like there was always someone there with her. And every time Moss gets stressed out and every time she's scared, you feel scared. She properly portrays that, she expertly portrays that, and the filmmaking and how they put it together properly does that as well. For instance, you know that scene where she walks out onto the porch and she breathes and like they're showing off their breath, and there's the breath behind her in the trailer? However in the trailer it makes it sound like he's like, he's not like that, you just see it and that's it. Admittedly the trailer for this film did not do this film any favors. So don't base your thoughts on the movie off this trailer like I did. The film does run a little long admittedly, but it still does keep your focus and your tension at an all time high. I think that this is actually a very well done reboot. In a land of crap ass reboots and crap ass remakes, this is actually pretty well done. Is this film full of some stupid bullshit? Yeah, there are some parts in the film that kind of really took me out of it for a brief second, but then the filmmaking and the writing was able to bring me back in. The ending has a few too many twists I would feel, but I still enjoyed it. This movie really blew away my expectations. I wasn't expecting it to be good. I was expecting this thing to be shit. I was pleasantly pleasantly surprised. I really hope that the director of this film gets to make more movies. I reviewed his first film, Upgrade just recently. You guys really see that. So in the end I'm going to give the Invisible Man a 5 out of 7. I'm really surprised. I enjoyed this movie. This is a good thriller. It doesn't have jump scare bullshit in it. It actually does get under your skin. It's an enjoyable movie. I'm really surprised. I wasn't expecting that. Anyways guys, that's all for me. I hope you enjoyed this review.
