Ever heard of the invisible man? Ever seen the invisible man? I've only seen memoirs of the invisible man with Chevy Chase and I have to say it was in the bulls##t factor. This films is basically the same as the invisible man but with a different name, Hollow Man. The story is about a group of scientists who discover a special serum which can make objects or living things look invisible for a certain amount of time. They wanted to test the serum on animals but one of the scientists, Kevin Bacon, is eager to test it on himself and he volunteers to be a guinea pig for this experiment.

They put the slimey stuff on him, couple of seconds later with intense special effects Kevin turns invisible. The scientists see this serum to be a major success and benefit but Kevin begins to think it as an opportunity for himself to do things that he cant get caught doing. So this means that this serum makes him evil or simply the bad guy. In order for the scientists to see him, he has to wear a type of rubber on his head so they can see his shape but when he takes it off, problem. Kevin starts to steal large amounts of money from banks, rape or seduce women and also kill.

Paul Verhoven, the director of this film who directed such films as Basic Instincts or StarShip Troopers, makes an attemp to make this film both entertaining and gripping but it doesn't seem to work. The film is crap, the only thing is good is the special effects. Dont bother!
