‘INVISIBLE MAN’ REVIEW: UNIVERSAL’S BEST MONSTER MOVIE IN 20YEARS
Scott Mendelson Senior Contributor Opinions expressed by Forbes Contributors are their own. Hollywood &Entertainment
I cover the film industry. * Share to facebook __ * Share to twitter __ * Share to linkedin __ Elisabeth Moss in 'The Invisible Man' Universal and Blumhouse LEIGH WHANNELL AND ELISABETH MOSS HAVE DELIVERED UNIVERSAL'S BEST "CLASSIC MONSTERS" FLICK SINCE STEPHEN SUMMERS' _THE MUMMY_. Constructed with pinpoint precision and structured to maximize engagement and emotional investment, Leigh Whannell’s _The Invisible Man _is a crackerjack box full of genre thrills. It’s also rooted in of-the-moment topicality and a playful cruelty from a longtime filmmaker with something to prove. While Leigh Whannell co-wrote the first _Saw _and the likes of _Insidious _and _Dead Silence_, it was director James Wan who arguably got the bigger spotlight (and the flashier follow-up projects). This is Whannell’s third directorial feature, following _Insidious 3 _and _Upgrade_. Not only is it an, well, an upgrade, it is an unapologetic filmmaker flex, showcasing a mastery of the form and a delight in its pleasures. It is also Universal’s best “classic monsters” movie since _The Mummy_. No, the OTHER _Mummy_. The good one. Loosely based off H.G. Wells’ novel, this modestly-budgeted (over/under $8 million) chiller hits the ground running with a deliciously intense curtain raiser detailing a battered woman’s escape from her abusive ex. The sequence is logical and drawn out to the point of frustration, and it’s such a triumph in low-key, near-silent tension that, yes, I would compare it to the opening of Steven Spielberg’s _Bridge of Spies_. As Cecilia Kass (Elisabeth Moss) darts out into the night to be met by her sister, we realize that even Alice Kass (Harriet Dyer) is unaware of the peril in question. That’s a smart choice, as it creates a sense of mystery for both the audience and the supporting cast. It also eventually allows for more natural exposition dumps. The picture establishes its past-tense peril without melodrama or overwrought flashbacks. There is a chilling succinctness as sister Alice and family friend James Lanier (Aldis Hodge) learn about their mutual friend’s plight. The disciplined screenplay uses its real-world horrors for potentially supernatural terror while letting the movie’s themes speak for themselves. We’re barely a reel into it before we discover that the abusive (and brilliant) Adrian Griffin (Oliver Jackson-Cohen) has been found dead by his own hand, thus giving Cecilia her freedom and $5 million. Alas, Cecilia is almost immediately beset by apparent attacks by an unseen foe, which seems to indicate that Adrian faked his death and is now torturing her as part of an elaborate scheme. Or she could be losing her mind.Today In: Business
Writer/director Whannell and friends are walking a tightrope here. There’s only so much this alleged invisible (and impressively quiet) man can do to his tormented victim without convincing even the most skeptical folks of Cecilia’s pleas. Yet there’s only so many times we can see Moss deal with unseen violence before it gets redundant. Whoever is doing this doesn’t waste time in what seems to be a plot to drive Cecilia insane, and we get a bare minimum of sequences where Moss simply talks to herself in an empty room. What we do get is rock-solid, in terms of character, tension and vicious narrative logic, as the unseen tormenter’s actions plausibly pit Cecilia against the few friends she has even as they try to maintain theirsympathy.

WORK REBOOTED: PREPARING FOR THE FUTURE OF WORK That sympathy even extends to Adrian’s younger brother (Michael Dorman), who gets a terrific mid-movie scene where he admits he too hated Adrian as he begs Cecilia not to let his late brother haunt her in death. Speaking of which, it is a little amusing that nobody considers ghosts and goblins as an explanation. It’s either science gone amok, or our heroine is crazy. Where the movie goes from here I will not say, but I will note that the two theatrical trailers are less spoiler-y than I feared. There are a few turns of the screw that will make packed audiences gasp. For better or worse, the film is willing to cheat logic just a little to deliver a satisfying “what we came to see” finale. This is all anchored by a terrific “in nearly every frame of the movie” performance from Elisabeth Moss. She has become something of an heir to Jennifer Connelly’s “feel bad cinema” crown (even as “cinema” now includes prestige TV). In a cosmic coincidence that blew my mind, Moss actually played a young girl in an episode of _Batman: The Animated Series,_ “See No Evil,” where she and her mother are tormented by an abusive ex using an invisible man suit to pretend to be his daughter’s imaginary friend. That has no bearing on the movie, I just wanted to bring it up it’s just so statistically implausible. Moss is dynamite here, while also never overselling the trauma or the empowerment angles and letting the storyspeak for itself.
Hodges and Storm Reed (as James’ daughter) have a natural chemistry that puts us on Cecilia’s side from the start, while Dyer offers a tough love compassion as the older sister. Through it all, Leigh Whannell plays his audience like a piano, aided by sleek and bold cinematography courtesy of Stefan Duscio (see it IMAX or Dolby if able) and uses the audiences’ awareness of genre tropes against them. This is an under-$10 million movie, but it looks every bit as polished as a mid-90’s suburban character thriller, one which (like, ironically _Batman: The Animated Series_) demanded a focus on character and plot because non-stop action/violence/spectacle wasn’t possible. There are slight similarities to _Hollow Man _and _Sleeping with the Enemy_, but _Invisible Man_ does its own thing. Universal and Blumhouse’s _The Invisible Man _is as much of a redemptive shot in the arm for Universal’s “classic monsters” franchise (RIP, “Dark Universe”) as was _Wonder Woman _for DC Films. Leigh Whannell’s R-rated chiller is a stand-alone character play, one that works as an elegant and pulpy thrill ride of forearm-bruising horror. It has little interest in expanded universes, sequels or spin-offs, while dipping its toes in (without wallowing in) real-world subtext. By allowing its title character to be the outright villain (and a giant metaphor for gaslighting) instead of an anti-hero, tragic victim or glorified superhero, _The Invisible Man _stands out from its predecessors and makes its own macabre music. After years of overthinking it, Universal hit pay dirt by just letting their monsters be monsters. Follow me on Twitter . Checkout my website .
