70Filthy fun, if not much more.
-
67An eminently watchable B-movie nightmare.
-
60The film becomes so much urgent nonsense, its killing spree neither cheaply thrilling nor even more cheaply cathartic. It's only gory.
-
50Hollow Man can think of nothing more interesting to do than spy on his girlfriend and assault his neighbor.Too bad. Really too bad, because the movie is supported by some of the most intriguing special effects I've seen.
-
50Turns resoundingly dumb in its last 40 minutes.
-
50Might have worked as a sex comedy, certainly as porn. But as a suspense thriller, it's creepy for all the wrong reasons.
-
50Boasts special effects that are really spectacular - too bad it lacks flesh-and-blood characters.
-
50Gleefully confrontational in its ludicrous, pulpy tawdriness.
-
50Pic's future as a cult item is a sure bet.
-
42A special-effects-and-chase-to-the-death movie, with little special about it.
-
42It is relatively suspenseless and often distastefully crude.
-
40Verhoeven, who inflicted "Showgirls" on us, skips the provacative questions raised by invisibility and goes straight to rape and murder.
-
The folks who made this movie apparently had nothing inside their heads, either.
-
38Verhoeven's most deeply disturbing film yet.
-
30This mean-spirited invisible man movie tries to hide its poverty of fresh ideas behind a load of state-of-the-art special effects.
-
30A boisterous, gooey miscue.
-
30If only the rest of the movie were as good as its cast.
-
25This is fatuous twaddle with a nasty, misogynistic edge.
-
25Might be a blast of ridiculous fun -- the way truly bad movies tend to be -- if it weren't so noxious and reprehensible.
-
25Ultimately the title is most revealing. It's hollow, man.
-
25Should have been an inaudible man movie. Every time the characters open their mouths, they hammer it deeper into the ground.
-
25How can we make the entire movie disappear?
-
25A painful bore.
-
20One wonders if the only original directors left are the obsessives and the freaks. This guy qualifies on both counts.
-
20It's not terribly interesting on the subject.
-
12A terribly bad movie, one of the worst of its kind in recent years.
-
10Ultimately it's an ugly, insipid rape fantasy, nothing more.
-
10We don't even have Joe Eszterhas to blame for this one.
-
10Maybe Kevin Bacon can use the Twinkie defense to explain Hollow Man.
-
10Despite a wealth of special effects...this movie is surprisingly inert, more dull than anything else, with little to recommend it on any level.
-
10Endure the long, slow, unraveling of this movie, which can't even muster the intelligence to be pretentious or the bravado to be amusingly bad.
-
10Turns into a moronic, psycho-on-the-loose picture pretty quickly.
-
10Too many special effects, many of them stomach churning; too much pornographically arranged death.
-
10Definitely stuck in the fourth grade.
-
0I haven't had a worse time at the movies this summer.
