The ironic twist at the movie’s end is a nice touch. The Invisibles, about humans as living ghosts, needs to be seen, and believed. Read full review

The Invisibles is a powerful testament to the remarkable courage of those forced into heroism, and to the exceptional strength of those who chose it freely. Read full review

The Invisibles is part documentary and part feature film. For most of the movie, it's a good thing. Read full review

A film like The Invisibles is part of bearing "precise witness." We clearly need reminders, and constant ones, of the end result of "otherizing" an entire group of people. Read full review

All of a sudden, you're introduced to survivors recounting the story in their own words, which begins the back-and-forth style of this hybrid docu-drama. The interviews provide a personal angle to the stories, but they also get in the way of creating any real tension in the dramatic re-enactments. There's a taste of mild suspense once or twice, but the documentary elements dominate the narrative. Even so, these stories of bravery add an interesting new angle to the plight of the persecuted during World War II.… Expand
