first i must say that i be a big paul verhoeven fan and when i hear that he be direct hollow man with kevin bacon ( who i be also a big fan of ) i be really excited . i do not need to remind people of how terrible hollow man turn out to be . but this direct to video sequel and hollow man ii and direct by claudio faeh and executive produce by verhoeven and be actually really good . so good in fact that i be look forward to the third installment of the franchise . the special effect and production value and performance and storyline be just as good if not good than most high budget theatrical studio film . christian slater make a great bad guy but what i enjoy most be peter facinelli a the hero . who know peter be a great action hero . this be by far the best direct to video horror or thriller film that i have see in a long time . it make me think that maybe paul verhoeven should hang up his hat a a director and oversee the sequel to his good film and robocop and total recall and basic instinct and starship trooper . there be no argument that those franchise need as much help a they can get .
