Name of the movie you are reviewing: The Invisible Man
Starring Elizabeth Moss (The Handmaid’s Tale), Aldis Hodge (WGN America series Underground) and Oliver Jackson-Cohen (Netflix series The Haunting of The Hill House) is both a reboot and remake of The Invisible Man series of films based on the novel of the same name by H. G. Wells.
Review:
What if Scream and Black Swan had a baby? And better what if Ghostface was actually invisible? What if Alien was not set on outer space, but was set in a spaceship which is actually a mansion on a barren coastline outside San Francisco (albeit its actual location is a set in New South Wales, Australia)?
Well it would result in The Invisible Man, of course. After the fiasco of the Dark Universe (a Universal Studios shared cinematic universe) with the office-box bomb from The Mummy, the bandaid man once hero turned villain returns. However, he does not wears a band-aid costume, because in this movie invisibility is high-tech induced.
The Invisible Man tells the story of Cecilia, a woman who is under domestic abuse and violence. She gets help from her sister to escape the whole situation after drugging her husband with Diazepam. Pretty much like every other ex here and there she becomes very paranoid over the sense of being stalked.
However, the film grabs attention from the tip of your toe to the chill on your spine, the ex now turned stalker cannot be seen. This creates a tense atmosphere, where you must capture every single background detail to confirm his presence, from cold breathing, to moving furniture, to even a sillhoutte under dustlight.
This is where the movie brings us closure on a very sensitive matter, stop blaming women about abusive relationships, stop discrediting women over their ordeals, stop telling women are mad. Just stop! The Invisible Man draws a perfect line about how society, authorities and government act toward women who are under the light of threatening man. They stalk, they sabotage, they poison, they hurt your loved ones, they makes everybody thinks you are crazy, the beat you, they rape you, they make you go suicidal, until at last minute they go homicidal.
These lines are blurry in the movie, but the parallels for those who passed through toxic and abusive relationships are pretty clear. In the moment she gets help, when the window of her sister's car gets smashed. The moment she can't barely go out for a walk afraid her stalker may be just right on the next corner, when he trespass your home in the middle of the night to snap some pictures, when he beat the s**t out of you when nobody is close, when he hacks your social accounts, e-mails, telephone and scolds people you love, when he hurts someone who protects you and the blame is on you.
Or when they literally makes everybody thinks you are insane because you can't prove anything. The Invisible Man is not just a thriller movie. It is the story of everyday women and abusive relationships.
Would you recommend this to other users? I recommend this movie, Elizabeth Moss acting is on point. It is such a shame that Oliver Jackson-Cohen had to be a villain though, got love his performance. The film highlights moments of panics for those who are under the influence and stress of abusers.
