Although there are many movies called "The Invisible Man" before, this film is different, it is also known as "Ghost Population". Different from the previous sci-fi special effects and real physical invisibility, this film tells the story of a "ghost". It is based on a very famous novel in Sweden, which was also made into a movie by the Swedes. The purpose of Hollywood's remake is to make this non-classical novel more recognized.
The male protagonist Nick is a promising child who has studied well. His mother wants him to make a difference, and the teachers in the school are also very optimistic about him. His friend Peter is a cowardly person who is threatened by the problem girl Annie all day long. Nick helps his friend, and because of this, he gets to know Annie.
However, the good times did not last long. Annie reported the case in a fit of rage because of a quarrel with her boyfriend. Annie was caught and captured. In a fit of anger, Annie thinks it's Peter who is the trouble, and in order to escape, Peter says it's the policeman Nick reported. An angry Annie beat Nick indiscriminately. Nick, who was severely injured, was on the verge of death. His soul had left his body, but he was still in the world. He is still a few hours away from his actual death, and can he be rescued, and who can really save him?
I opened my eyes early in the morning and went to school naturally, only to find that not only did I raise my hand to answer the question, but the teacher wouldn't let him go, but everyone also regarded him as nothing. This feeling must be very uncomfortable. Different from other films about the "invisible man", this film does not follow the line of visual science fiction, but the line of surreal psychological science fiction. The director of this film, David Goya, is a master of black thriller science fiction films, and his representative works include "Blade II". His excellent ability to adapt comic characters has pushed him from the original screenwriter to the director's position. He also tried the role of a producer and produced many TV series. The films he directed include "ZigZag", "Blade: Trinity" and so on. There is something unique about his personal understanding of this Swedish novel. The actor Nick was also known for his role as the rebellious son in "War of the Worlds". However, the essence of this film is not the star, but an extremely classic story, a redemption of the soul.
The story is very tortuous. Originally had a promising future, but was beaten out of body by accident, because the body was hidden, so the murderer Annie became the key person who could save Nick's life. Nick's soul wandered in the world. During this period, he saw a lot of things that he couldn't see in his daily life: his good friend Peter was timid and cowardly, but he would steal the money that Nick hid in the book; A person who never considers his own feelings, always imposes his own ideas on Nick, and even only has work in his eyes and never cares about his children. But after Nick disappeared, Nick discovered through his free soul that his mother could read his poems and wept, and cried bitterly because of the disappearance of the child, thus realizing the other side of mother. And Annie, a troubled girl, is not born to want to live like this. The family situation forces a young child to become a thief or even a "murderer", but she still has a pure and straight side in her heart, in order to protect her younger brother , she can give a lot, and her soul is also fighting fiercely between good and evil.
Nick's soul has always followed Annie and kept calling out her name, hoping that she could find her conscience and save her life. Over time, Nick discovers that Annie can hear herself! In order to save themselves and their souls, Nick and Annie went to find Nick's body together. At the same time, in this limited time, the contradiction between the two gradually disappeared, but an inexplicable emotion emerged. In the end, a troubled girl who can't even save herself, saves others and saves her own soul...
The intersection of hearts and minds is so pure, in today's society, it is often only behind the back to see what's inside a person's appearance Something - that thing called "Soul". Maybe what looks good on the surface is actually bad, and what looks bad on the surface is the opposite. In the world we live in now, many people and many things are superficial phenomena. Only by tearing one's face and shaking out one's soul can we see the most real things. This is also the biggest touch that this film brought me. I believe that everyone who has watched this film will have the same feeling. This is a baptism of the soul and a perfect redemption. At the moment when Nick was resurrected and Annie died, our sad mood was mixed with a touch of emotion. The heart received such a wash, the dark clouds dissipated from the eyes, and the light illuminated the whole world...
