A genre piece of medium quality. The film "Invulnerable" tells the story of a criminology professor who discovers the weirdness of his new neighbor, but instead of getting closer to the truth, he falls into the trap of invulnerability. The external conflict pursued by this story is somewhat suspenseful. After all, it points to a single point, and normal people can understand very early that the prisoner must be a neighbor. If it is handled better, it may be possible to objectively confuse some vague plots such as new girlfriends and students. The ending is indeed a reversal, which is also in line with the impeccable proposition. This is a plus, it doesn't fall into the cliché that justice must prevail. The slight flaw is that the ending is not clean enough. If it is a more open ending, there is no need to speak too clearly. The echo of criminal behavior is important, but if you end the news neatly, there is no need to give the explosion scene head-on and repeat the TV broadcast. To put it bluntly, the director is reluctant to give up the echo of the crime in the title. In addition, I will feel that the background of the male protagonist is not used enough. It only allows me to see the face used by the villain to design the male protagonist in the case. There will be many people who suspect that he is a psychological problem.
