Hollow man is all about Kevin Bacon's character and what happens if power is in the wrong hands. Some great opportunity affects in this film which allows the the hollow man to become visible, one of Hollywoods cheesy better one's.
The film starts out strong, well made with good acting and a solid pace. however half way through the film, it devolves into a mindless action film. The VFX still hold up today, and it just feels like a classic Verhoven / 90's sci fie b-movie. It's enjoyable, and what else can you ask of really. I would recommend checking this film out, especially if you've never seen it, or if you haven't seen it recently.
Hollow Man (2000) is an entertaining science fiction thriller film that is sure to please not only fans of those specific genres, but also others. I really think anyone could enjoy this movie. The plot revolves around Sebastian (Kevin Bacon) who is one of the scientists on a team of scientists that are working to create an invisibility serum. They test on various animals at first, but then when they are ready for a human to test the serum on, Sebastian insists that he be the test subject. The serum is successful and he becomes completely invisible, and then when they try to reverse it a couple days later, the reversement is unsuccessful. He eventually becomes completely mad with power and goes after his fellow colleagues. Elisabeth Shue plays his former lover and fellow scientist colleague, and josh brolin also works alongside them and is Shue's current lover. They all play their roles well and I think they were all cast correctly, they fit the characters. The plot is executed well and the visuals were good enough at the time to earn the movie an academy award nomination. 8/10 for Hollow Man. Very enjoyable movie overall.
the idea is well known. from H.G.Wells . or from Plato. the character of Sebastian reminds an if who is present in many occasions in our lives. and Verhoever film is inspired development of a premise who is far to not be tempting. in fact, the film is an old fashion story. about love, jealousy and the absolute freedom. and its great virtue is the duel between the characters of Josh Brolin and Kevin Bacon. result - a thriller who propose the hypothesis of escape from the rules and the desire as the only law.
