Totally disliked the film

The origin of the film originally belonged to one of the concepts of Universal Pictures' "Dark Universe" series. Including Frankenstein, The Phantom of the Opera, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, The Mummy, The Invisible Man, etc. Universal's original plan was to remake one by one, and the scheduled cast lineup is also extremely luxurious, Tom Cruise, Russell Crowe, Johnny Depp, etc., of which Depp is the scheduled "Invisible Man" protagonist . But the fate of the dark universe is really too "dark". The first year of the universe "Dracula's First Year" and Tom's "The New Mummy" have encountered historic hits in word of mouth and box office. Due to the consideration that it could not be the laughing stock of the industry for three consecutive losses, Universal finally gave up the big production plan of "The Invisible Man", positioned it as a low-cost horror film, and also kicked out the unfinished dark universe big plan. Therefore, the director of this film chose Wen Ziren's long-term partner Ray Warner, and the sci-fi film turned into a thriller. The result... But I didn't think "The Invisible Man", a work that my father doesn't care about and doesn't love. At a low cost of 7 million US dollars, it won nearly 40 million at the box office in the first week, and achieved a profit in one week. The word-of-mouth rating is also quite good. But the personal perception and quality are far worse than "Hereditary", "Joker" and "Boarding School". The actress who succeeded Depp as the heroine was Elisabeth Moss, who became popular from the American drama "The Handmaid", but she is so ugly. Compared with Elisabeth Shu, the heroine of the old version of "Transparent", her appearance is almost 100,000 worse. Eight thousand miles. This appearance is really difficult to make people feel compassion, but she feels that she deserves to be unlucky. 3.9 points!

    He controls what you eat and drink, what you wear and what you don't wear, and then slowly controls what you don't say, controls your language, and controls your thoughts. He will use your mouth to "spit people with blood" and use your hand to "kill people with a knife." He will threaten you, seduce you, coerce you, and make people around you doubt you, hate you, and abandon you. Let you not feel alive in the so-called freedom. He can also be her, he or even Him. He can be the specific parents, leaders, elders around you, or the "big brother" who is invisible but looks at you all the time. The most terrifying thing is you, staring into the abyss for too long, fighting with the dragon for too long, and becoming "him".

    In other words, it's very general, and overall it's quite a routine, except for the heart-warming dark ending.

The Invisible Man quotes

  • Tom Griffin: It's upsetting to see you in this condition. Even though things ended badly for you and Adrian, I still look at you as family.

    Cecilia Kass: Are you my lawyer now?

    Tom Griffin: I'm your lawyer for your source of income. I represent my brother's trust. The money from his trust was payable to you, conditional upon you being subject to criminal charges of any kind, or being ruled to be mentally incompetent. Now in light of your current situation, it's my duty to inform you that any further payments are to be halted. I know that you set up a bank account for a friend of yours to go to college, so I take no pleasure in relaying that.

    Cecilia Kass: I used to feel sorry for you. The blood relative of a narcissist sociopath. Permanent punching bag. Handcuffed to his wallet. But now I can see you for what you really are. You're just the jellyfish version of him. Everything but the spine.

    Tom Griffin: I mean you can try to litigate it. But that's going to be an expensive option, I can't see it working. However if you sign this document, and forfeit your share of the trust, it'll be a lot cleaner. Or there's one option where this all goes away. Agree to have the baby, and you go back to him. You really think he didn't know you were really usually birth control? Of course he did. You should have known he find out. You knew him as well as I did. He replaced them with something else. You only thought you were taking birth control pills. He was always going to find you, no matter what he had to do. He needs you because you don't need him. No one's ever left him before. But he's punished you enough now. Now that he knows you're the mother of his child. It's time to stop playing games. A new life with him can be given to you one phone call. A life just like your old one with Adrian. Cecilia, you don't really have a choice right now. Right now you're a murderer. But I can change that.

    Cecilia Kass: Adrian killed my sister, and you help him!

    [She grabs one of Tom's pens as he's distracted picking up the documents she threw to the floor]

    Tom Griffin: I don't expect you to make a decision right now. I can come back in three days. Be good to yourself until then. We'll be watching.

  • Cecilia Kass: [as she's about to use the pen she stole to cut her wrist] You won't get the baby. And you won't get me.

    [she starts to cut her wrist, but Adrian grabs her hand]

    Cecilia Kass: There you are.

    [she uses the pen to stab him repeatedly, causing the suit to malfunction]

    Cecilia Kass: Fuck you!
