Hollow Man II Audience Reviews

SparkMore n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.
Yash Wade Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.
Celia A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
Francene Odetta It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
SnoopyStyle An invisible man attacks Dr. Devin Villiers demanding something called buffer. Villiers tells him that Maggie Dalton (Laura Regan) should have buffers and he kills Villiers. Police detectives Frank Turner (Peter Facinelli) and Lisa Martinez investigates but is soon pulled off the case. They are reduced to guarding Maggie. The invisible man attacks killing Martinez. Dr. William Reisner (David McIlwraith) and Col. Gavin Bishop (William MacDonald) had set up the trap with Maggie as bait. Turner with Dalton goes on the run from both the military and the invisible man. Maggie reveals that a DOD program code name Silent Knight run by Reisner had picked up from the previous failed experiment. Maggie had created a buffer to keep the invisible subjects from dying. Special forces member Michael Griffin (Christian Slater) had been turned invisible but is now on the run.This actually started well considering this is strictly straight to DVD. Although the teens doing night vision sex tape is pretty stupid. I have no idea why the invisible man was in that room other than to see some boobs. The voyeuristic aspect of the original is still bleeding into this movie. This one needed to go all out action, but the money isn't there for that. Christian Slater is headlining but he's barely in this. He does some voice work but his character is invisible. The best option was probably for this to go far more into horror if they can't afford big time action.
TheLittleSongbird I enjoyed the original Hollow Man for all its flaws, so I was expecting something along the same lines for this sequel. It is such a shame though that Hollow Man 2 is such a mess. Not even Christian Slater could save it, I like him and he seemed a good choice, but with the characters being as stock and as irritating as they were and the script being as thin and as cheesy as it was he can't do anything with the role. Visuals are a step-down, not cheap as such, but they aren't amazing either. The music is not as atmospheric or as fitting, while the story is rushed and uninteresting with little suspense or thrills to satisfy. Overall, a real let-down. 1/10 Bethany Cox
ctomvelu1 Kevin Bacon and Christian Slater worked their way up in the Hollywood ranks at roughly the same time. Sort of like Jeff Daniels and Bill Pullman. Or Bill Pullman and Bill Paxton. But there's no excuse for having Slater stand in for Bacon in this dull sequel to HOLLOW MAN. A government killer is on the loose, and he's invisible. A detective and a scientist are trying to deal with the situation, but end up on the run from the mad killer. That's about all she wrote. This is a Canadian-lensed quickie, and unlike the original, the "invisible man" scenes are laughable instead of scary. Slater has appeared in some real dogs in his career, but this one takes top prize. It's actually a waste to have a guy like Slater, who can act when he wants to, attached to this in-name-only sequel, but Hollywood was thinking name value. If you can't get Bacon back, why not use Slater? Dumb logic. The dialog is atrocious, too. Skip it. I hate to think of how many millions of dollars were thrown away on this puppy.
Claudio Carvalho In Seattle, after the mysterious death of the scientist Dr. Devin Villiers (John Shaw), Detective Frank Turner (Peter Facinelli) and his partner Det. Lisa Martinez (Sarah Deakins) are assigned to protect Devin's colleague Dr. Maggie Dalton (Laura Regan). Lisa is killed while protecting Maggie, and Frank presses her to tell what is happening. She discloses that a veteran soldier called Michael Griffin (Christian Slater) was submitted to an experiment with the objective to create the ultimate national security weapon, an undetectable soldier. However, the experiment failed, with horrible side effects due to the damage to the cells caused by the radiation. Michael is chasing Maggie to get the necessary buffer to survive."Hollow Man 2" is inferior to the original, but entertains. The predictable and forgettable story has flaws and very few special effects, but it is not so bad as indicated in many reviews. My vote is six.Title (Brazil): "O Homem Sem Sombra 2" ("The Man Without Shadow 2")
