it seem a lot of imdb comment on this film be bias and in the sense that they try to compare it to an old version . true and hollow man be a remake of sort of the invisible man and but that where the similarity end . hollow man be an entertaining movie and period . if you watch a movie with the intention of find a many flaw a possible and then you shouldn not watch movie in the first place . true and some movie be plain horrendous and unbearable and but hollow man manage to entertain and make you think what you would do if you be invisible and if you have your ex get lay with one of your friend . kevin bacon star a a eccentric scientist who and along with a team of collaborator and discover the way to make animal invisible . now his mission be to make them visible again . when this team of young scientist ( work and a you might guess and for the pentagon ) think they have the formula for make animal visible again and kevin bacon volunteer to be the first to try the new experimental drug . after that and of course and thing go wrong and a kevin bacon remain invisible for the rest of the movie and be oblige to wear a latex mask and so his collaborator know where he be . feeling of paranoia and desperation begin to take over kevin character and and when he find out that his ex girlfriend and collaborator ( elisabeth shue ) be have a torrid affair with another of the young scientist in the team and he finally snap . the movie then turn into a hybrid of alien and a slasher flick and but that not say it a bad turn . there be scare and chill and the movie move at a nice pace . the special effect be top notch ( a quality always prevalent in all of paul verhoeven film ) a we get to see some body reconstitution sequence never see on a movie before . if there anything to complain about and perhaps and be the predictability of the situation herein while by the first hour of the movie you know kevin bacon will make the jump from be weird and eccentric to be a homicidal lunatic in the end . and the end be a bit abrupt and but despite this and hollow man be still worth watch . if you want to know what a truly bad movie be and then waste your money on fear dot com ( with stephen dorf ) or the even bad the untold ( or sasquatsh and with land henriksen ) . now that be hollow . positive .
