The Invisible


Sunday night. Movie night.

As usual, we had a movie night on the day before Monday. We watched trailers and filtered out some movies. Then, we came across this. It looked interesting. Talking about a murder. From the same producer of "The Sixth Sense". Kind of poetry. Seems like the Invisible contains many cool elements.

One minute before we played it, Totof checked Rotten Tomatoes, a movie review site. www.rottentomatoes.com
The result did not look encouraging. Only 20% said this movie deserves watching. 20% is absolutely not a good score. W worried

20%?

The beginning was ok, better than 20%, agreed by all of us.

Some minutes were spotlighted on Nick, the main character. You could see he was from a rich family. Mom was quiet and successful. Mom wanted Nick to be successful. Dad was dead. Nick always remembered that Mom said to him "It is ok. This will not change your life" after his dad was dead. You sensed something.

A burglary occurred. Marcus called the police.

A murder occurred. So far so good

Many scenes were focused on Annie, the main character. The producer tried to enrich the movie. You understood Annie and her behaviors more as you saw her family and her family stories.

People assumed Nick was dead.

Mom crashed. Mom read Nick's poetry but could not finish it. Nick witnessed it.

Nick realized he was alive. Then, the fun began.

Many struggles. Annie had some. Pete, the best friend of Nick, had some. Pete tried to suicide at some point.

Marcus threatened Pete and relocate Nick's body.

People rescued Nick's body.

Nick communicated with his mom through Annie.

Annie died.

Movie ended.

AFTERTHOUGHT:
From our perspectives, this movie deserves more than 20%.
