The Invisible Man

Jack Griffin é o auxiliar de um famoso cientista que, em busca de dinheiro e fama, descobre a fórmula para se tornar invisível. O problema é que ele não descobriu o antídoto e a fórmula o está enlouquecendo, ameaçando as outras pessoas. O que faz com que as autoridades iniciem uma caçada humana contra ele. Adaptação do livro clássico de H. G. Wells, apresentou aqui toda a base do personagem que, depois, seria utilizado em outros filmes e mídias. O ponto mais interessante neste filme é a utilização de efeitos visuais. Até hoje, a revelação, que ele é invisível para a turba que invade o seu quarto na hospedaria, ainda é surpreendente e bem feita, levando em conta a tecnologia e o orçamento do filme. Claude Rains encaixou-se muito bem na figura do Homem Invisível, principalmente que a sua interpretação está praticamente na sua voz. Um clássico dos filmes de terror.

While I do enjoy this movie and the effects of invisble man are extraordinary for the time and hold up fairly well. The movie just feels off to me and I feel like there are points where its trying to be funny and I can't really get behind the the tonal shifts. But that's just my opinion. Overall Its good, but not the best of Universal's classic monsters.

I watched Claude Rains in the Invisible Man today. And I still love this movie even when I was a little boy. It’s such a great film! Plus it’s one of the funniest movies I’ve ever seen. It’s like a dark comedy. But either way I enjoy the film very much it’s definitely one of the best movies made by universal studios. I enjoy every second of it. Claude Rains had a talent for playing lunatics. I wonder what he’d think of the 1984 version made by the BBC. But yeah if you need a good laugh I suggest watching this movie

The best of the Universal Monsters.

Probably the best of universal og movies.

The first Invisible Man movie is more faithful to the H.G. Wells novel than most people think. Rains plays the unseen entity wonderfully and truly captures the spirit of the novel

The special effects in this film are HIGHLY underrated, nothing short of groundbreaking, and nobody talks about it. Briskly paced, everybody in this film does exactly what they're supposed to do. I laughed as Dr. Jack Griffin, the titular invisible man devolves into a cartoonish and maniacal spree of murder and mayhem. A very fun film.

I like that Raines is psychotic from the get go. It gives the movie energy and purpose. Whale also has the right sense of humor about the whole thing.

The dialogue in this movie is awful, and Mrs. Hall is one of the most irritating characters I've ever seen.

Great movie!! A true classic of the universal monsters
