Destroyed transparent man

When I was a child, the most impressive thing about sci-fi stories was an article about the invisible man. Later, when I watched "Harry Potter", I was envious of Harry's heirloom invisibility cloak. I imagined that if one day I became a transparent person, others would not know where I was. The freedom to do whatever I want is simply great. of attraction. Whenever I think of this idea, I will imagine that the things I want to do are mostly evil actions that I would not dare to do on a daily basis. Transparency means concealing information from others, and it also means the disappearance of moral shackles. No wonder the male protagonist is reluctant to give up and fight to the death.
To be honest, this is actually a great idea. When a person becomes transparent, how can he digest that huge pleasure; how to face the new world; how to face the evil thoughts in his heart; even, how to face turning a blind eye sense of loss? These are all excellent performance points, but this film basically ignores or weakens these aspects and acts as a general thriller drama. In this way, the image of the character is pale, we only see a perverted genius, and the image of the character is flat to the extreme. And the transformation of the heroine is not obvious enough. The whole movie is forcibly pushed by the plot step by step, rather than unfolding naturally.
Transparent people, or invisible people, are more suitable for philosophical discussions in my opinion. The idea could have been more profound, and the discussion in the film could have been more powerful, but it turned out to be an ordinary commercial work. These puffy and pale stories ruined my transparent person.
