contains spoilershollow man be probably the weak movie that paul verhoeven and director of great movie like total recall and starship trooper and robocop have ever make . that probably not his fault . for some reason and verhoeven get stick with an utterly mediocre script and and he make the best of it . the first part of this movie be rather good and with lot of cynical joke and great special effect and even skunk anansie on the soundtrack . unfortunately and the movie fall flat in the second part and be it degenerate into a standard slasher movie or maybe a very bad alien clone . the end be especially ridiculous < spoiler > and a kevin bacon keep come back to life after a number of incident that should ( in the logical sense of the word ) have kill him . < or spoiler > . and the entire thing be quite shallow and indeed represent the subject of become invisible be never fully investigate . but all in all and verhoeven manages to stay well above average with this movie . half out of star .
