The Invisible Man (2020) [Blu-ray]

GREAT MOVIE, NO COMERCIALS

Why are the top reviews complaining about how the movie is "PC" or "omg I can't believe another movie thinks a man is bad". These people just wrote this to complain about things that aren't even related to the movie. In fact, these reviews sound like maybe they related a little too much to Adrian, in which case, you're probably not a good person. The premise is literally a woman escaping an abusive sociopathic ex. Did you want to see her killed instead? Ive seen a bunch of trailers and decide to bite the absurd price of renting this for $20 and to be honest, I don't regret it. Was it the most plot twisting, thrilling movie ever? No, but it did entertain me throughout and surprised me in certain ways. Some things were a little cliche and cringe, but a lot of things were very relatable. Core theme of an abusive relationship was portrayed very well, and yes, abusers will try to isolate and control you in every way. The invisible man may seem like sci-fi concept, but its also a metaphor for the invisible trauma that victims carry everyday. Unfortunately, many people in real life don't get the chance to escape, as Cecillia did and so with this ending, I'm going to consider this a feel good movie. I don't care about the remakes in the past but if you're one of those movie purist, this ain't for you. TLDR: Just watch it if you're already here.

I had to write a review simply because of the ridiculous 1-star reviews claiming the movie is somehow "PC." I'm guessing a lot of thin skinned, delicate snowflakes just can't handle the fact that two of the main characters are Black? Or that the lead character actually fights back against an abusive man? I can't think of how else a person could walk away from this film thinking Hollywood is trying to plant PC messages in your brain. There are literally ZERO politics in this film. It's a good, solid thriller -- that's it. As for those who say that Elizabeth Moss is below average in attractiveness, PLEASE. In one breath you complain about the Hollywood elite, in another you sound like the exact type that Hollywood traditionally caters to: people who can't stand to see anyone less than a Barbie or Ken doll come to life on the big screen. Which do you want? A Hollywood that speaks to real people, or one that speaks only to itself? You can't have it both ways. Okay, rant over. The movie itself was very well done. Not a horror movie, but a good thriller that was engaging from start to finish and had enough moments of surprise to make it not seem formulaic. It's not going to win any awards, but it was a VERY good movie and I highly recommend it to anyone who doesn't get their fragile feelings hurt watching white people and Black people be friends on screen, or watching a smart woman deal with an abusive man.

a good Movie

The previews to this movie gave me higher hopes for it than what it actually delivered. I would consider this a slow burn thriller. It definitely wasn’t horror although there are a couple of moderately bloody scenes. The acting was good for the most part and cinematography too. I just felt a little let down considering they had such a great concept and felt like it could really take you on a great roller coaster ride of thrills and jumps scares and plot twists, unfortunately ,”The Invisible Man”, just didn’t do that for me. I honestly felt as if the first 30 minutes kind of dragged you along endlessly. Just when I thought it was a bust, the film picked up its tempo and made me want to hang around for the ending. Since I paid $20.00 for it, I intend to watch it again just so I can get my money’s worth and hope I get more out of it next time. Who knows, maybe I will put it on the living room TV and invite the hubby and grown children to watch and charge admission. Lol

Una propuesta intensa y bien ejecutada. The Invisible Man combina el terror psicológico con una narrativa moderna sobre el control y la paranoia. La actuación principal es sobresaliente: transmite angustia real y te hace dudar de lo que ves. La dirección logra mantener la tensión sin recurrir a sustos baratos. Los efectos visuales están bien integrados, y el ritmo es constante, con giros que sorprenden sin perder coherencia. Recomendada para quienes disfrutan del suspenso con profundidad emocional. No es solo una historia de invisibilidad, sino una reflexión sobre el miedo y la manipulación.

There's nothing "woke" about this movie. If you think it is, it's because you want it to be. A few reviews that said this movie was woke mentioned things that weren't in the movie at all. There's no talk of abortion, no white oppression, all white males are NOT shown to be insensitive, etc. So to those reviewers.... Maybe stop being so sensitive and offended that you can't even see what the movie is actually about. The problem is you, not the movie. With that said, the movie was pretty good but could have been great if it had went in a different direction. Personally, I think the movie would have been better if the "invisible" man would have done something other than stalking an ex. Like create panic and mayhem by doing crazy things in public, or murdering innocent people in broad daylight. BUT the way this plot was handled was pretty damn good. Generic, in a way, but done well. I say generic because the whole "everyone thinks she's crazy but she really isn't" trope has been done before over and over again. The ending was the best part. I won't say what happens but it wasn't what I expected. Worth a watch.

La paciencia tiene su recompensa! Durante meses estuve en espera de que bajara el precio, ya que pagar más de 900 pesos me parecía excesivamente cara, aún sin ser una collectors edition, digibook o una edición que justificara ese costo... hace un par de meses llegó a estar en 580 pero aún así me resistí a comprarla, afortunadamente ahora la encontré a 279, un precio accesible y razonable. De la película, el aspecto más deslumbrante de The Invisible Man son los largos períodos de silencio donde la gramática visual obliga a los espectadores a analizar realmente lo que está sucediendo en todo el entorno de la protagonista, la tensión nunca cede y estarás al borde del asiento en cada fotograma de la película. sin duda muy recomendable. Contiene subs y doblaje al español latino.

A qualidade e o filme são excelentes, mas não tem áudio e nem legendas em português!

wow. what a movie! lhe acting is all around very good by all the actors. this movie is very intense, you dont really know what is going to happen next.

This movie is a lot more creepy than it looks. Gave me chills. Definitely worth a watch.
