The story was so good that the genre of the invisible man in the story turned into a metaphor, whether it was genre science fiction, fantasy, drama or fear.
We can call “The Invisible Man” a stylish contemporary update of H. G. Wells’ idea of the Invisible Man, the science fiction book published in 1897, for this movie of the same name or a modern twist horror movie inspired by #Metoo. The movie is obviously the sum of all of them.
Moreover, the wonders of director Leigh Whannell and producer Jason Blum. It was the first time that we met the name Whannell in the movie Upgrade thanks to Jasom Blum (Blumhouse). With this second film, in which the director maintains the collaboration of Blum, but includes Universal Pictures, the director has made himself a place among the horror genre’s leading names James Wan, Jordan Peele and Night Shyamalan, but with a contemporary and scientific fictional signature.
The film is extremely tense, exciting and full of surprise moments. Incredibly, the director managed to scare the audience, even with empty plans and scenes. The angles of the camera were used very well, the scenes were planned wonderfully, especially the choreography in the clash scenes with an invisible person was a perfect hit.
Like in many other horror movies, the characters weren’t made stupid mistakes, and the characters often found themselves at times when they had no other choice. It was not clear that the film was shot with a low budget of 7 million dollars, the reason is hidden in the success of the director.
From the opening credits of the movie, the incredibly stretched first escape scene and the house image in that magnificent architecture, you understand how to watch a quality production. Gradually increasing the tension, the movie begins to make the audience get their nails by saying “No, this has not happened!” With the restaurant scene that will not be forgotten.
Not my eyes jumped on that scene between us! While all this tension is escalating, you continue to excitedly support that the struggle of the woman hero, who survived the trauma, has been successful. The favorite vein of the film was that the woman believed in herself and her inner voice so much that no one believed, could prove anything, and stubbornly went over it and found her own power.
The story related to victim
You might think that the story will evolve around the invisible man by looking at his name, but what makes this movie more scary is that the story is about the victim rather than the invisible man. The audience is more afraid of what they do not know, not being able to understand whether it is there or not seeing the enemy makes the audience squirm in their seats.
The movie has a very cleverly written story that shows how a woman can be manipulated and exploited in a poisonous relationship. And this is the story of Cecilia, who is presented entirely from the perspective of women, turning into a female hero without any support from anyone. The presence of Elisabeth Moss has added a lot to this character. The presence of this actress, who looks more sedate, intelligent and stronger than Hitchcock blondes, has added a quality layer to the character.
He successfully reported the physical, emotional and psychological damage experienced by a woman who left a bully. The actors in the movie were pretty good overall. Even though Oliver Jackson-Cohen (the dependent brother in The Haunting of Hill House), who plays the Invisible Man, appears very little, he was giving the right to his complicated, uncanny, angry ex-girlfriend role in the scenes we watched him. The story was so good that the invisible man in the story turned into a metaphor, whether it was science fiction, fantasy, drama or fear. I say don’t miss it in the cinema.
