Temporarily, The Invisible closed:
Marvel has proved it: You take a variety of well-known characters from a popular brand, it has built in-house movies and lets you in the long run, together in a bombastic Blockbuster clash. The Universal thought. The film Studio wanted in the so-called Dark Universe famous movie monsters like Dracula, Frankenstein, Jekyll & Hyde , and the Invisible together, those heights, where the fats, gravel, waiting for dug to be. However, it turned out to be the first Film in the series – The mummy – as a terrific handle in the toilet. With The Invisible , we experience a further reinterpretation of a well-known classic, but this time without looking at a larger universe. A good idea?
At first glance, Cecilia Kass (Elisabeth Moss) seems to have the great Los drawn. In a relationship with the wealthy and brilliant scientist, Adrian Griffin (Oliver Jackson-Cohen), is a life of happiness, security and stability, nothing in the way. On second glance, this note turns out to be, however, deceptive, because Cicilia is a prisoner in a cage made of Gold. There is no area in your life that is not subject to the control of your partner. Physical abuse is as much a part of your everyday life as mental torture. As the young woman succeeds, the manic control of the scientist to withdraw and shelter in a friend of your sister, reached Cicillia the news that Adrian has taken after her escape the life. But when suddenly strange things in Cicillias environment occur, she begins to doubt the death of Adrian’s. He fakes his death and is now as Invisible Terror in the lives of his ex-girlfriend? After all, he was as a scientist, a pioneer in the field of optics. Or Cicillias soul has received in the years of the relationship, so severe scars that Adrian must not make his time more alive to your existence to hell?

Criticism
Just in the Horror Genre, you can’t complain about a lack of non-creative reprints of various sizes of the genre. So was H. G. Wells, The Invisible man in some rather uninspired incarnations on his way to the big screen. In the latest Interpretation of the Schauer-Mar it is, however, a such. Director Leigh Whannell moved his Version of the transparent villains away from the Horror and embeds him in a Psycho-Thriller with a (possible) Sci-Fi elements. This choice is not by chance, because Whannell could as an author and main actor of the first Saw to make a name.
Whannells screenplay raises the issue of Stalking in a more fantastic level, and it plays cleverly with expectations. While Cicillias environment challenged more and more their mental health, believes the viewers to know a little more. A fact that thanks to some of the narrative tricks as a mistake turns out to be. The Writing establishes a constant voltage arc, and is especially Cicillia enough time and space to develop. Only the end, I felt as a real weakness of the story, because the moral question that the Film poses, in his last moments, makes some broken, that he had previously found a great.
Acting-wise, can The Invisible man , with an excellent main character points. Elisabeth Moss portrays to think every second of the psychological decay, the despair and the anxiety of your figure. Accompanied by the skillful Director Leigh Whannells, which dispensed with great special effects and smaller Tricks, like a well-chosen camera perspective, serves to convey the impression that the main character may be alone in the room. Without Schnick-Schack and a lot of effort to cut the density of the atmosphere, which captivates through the entire duration of 125 minutes it is.

CONCLUSION
The Invisible man has me very surprised! The move away from a Dark Universe and the implementation of a low-Budget turns out to be the right decision for Universal. The new direction, away from Horror to psychological Thriller, is good for the latest incarnation of H. G. Wells Horror Mar visually. This is partly due to the terrific Writing and directed by Leigh Whannell. Will be worn all through the great acting performance from Elisabeth Moss, which shines as potential victims of Stalking in each of their scenes. Over its complete run time of a little more than two hours white The Invisible its tension to hold and is able, thanks to some tweaks to the seemingly omniscient viewers by the nose. Only the end, or better said, the last few minutes of the film, to come across me angry, because he puts a moral question, which – in my opinion – destroyed much of what was built up meticulously. Also, it seems to be a bit contrived and not quite so organically in the Rest of the film. But this is only a small scratch in the paint of an otherwise great film.
