The Invisible Man (I) (2020)
7/10
Intense and Brilliantly Acted but Doesn't Stick the Landing

Warning: Spoilers
First of all, Elizabeth Moss is absolutely brilliant in this film. She perfectly captures the fear and paranoia of her character and her performance is definitely one of the most memorable of the year. Second, this film has some intense and downright brilliantly directed scenes.

While I enjoyed this movie very much, the ending was a little sloppy to me. At the end of the movie, she gets her revenge on Adrian(The Invisible Man) by using the invisible suit she hid earlier in the movie to kill him, but there is a huge plot point that happened earlier that revealed Adrian knew where her hiding place was. Wouldn't he know she hid the suit there? Did he not notice one of his suits were missing? I don't like nitpicking movies, but I was left a little puzzled. Also, the ending would've been more horrifying if Adrian got away with it and the movie hinted at the fact that he might continue to haunt her.

It's extremely frustrating when a great movie doesn't stick the landing, but overall I thought The Invisible Man was well made and an intense experience.
