The Amazing Transparent Movie
10 June 2009
This very short sci-fi film is pretty forgettable. It tells the story of a safe-breaker who is busted out of prison by a criminal mastermind. A subservient scientist is forced to experiment on the safe-cracker, turning him invisible; from this position the thief can effectively rob banks. The master criminal, meanwhile, dreams of creating an invisible army.

There are some reasonable effects on display here. But any film that features an invisible man as its centre-piece has its work cut out keeping things interesting. Invisible actions aren't a recipe for cinematic gold. And in this instance we have props on wires, invisible fights and, best of all, an invisible guinea pig. It's all a bit tedious really but clocking in at under an hour it isn't too painful.
