An arrogant scientist (Kevin Bacon) convinces his
co-workers to let him be the first human subject of an experiment that will make him
invisible, but when they're unable to bring him back he seeks revenge. Also with Elisabeth
Shue, Josh Brolin, Joey Slotnick, William DeVane, Kim Dickens, Greg Grunberg, Mary Jo
Randle and Rhona Mitra. [1:45]
SEX/NUDITY 8 - Several instances of sexual innuendo (in one scene, a man
tells a crude sexual joke involving a nude woman, sodomy and rape) and a few kisses. A
woman unzips her pants and leaps into a man's arms before they fall on a bed and kiss
passionately (we see her bra through her open shirt and his bare chest); also, a woman
wearing a tank top kisses down a man's bare chest while they're lying in bed. In one scene
a sheet is pulled off a sleeping woman's body, her shirt is unbuttoned (her bare midriff
is visible, but her breasts aren't), her panties are removed, and her legs are pushed
open, presumably by an invisible person. A man grabs a woman, pushes her against a wall
and kisses her neck. A woman's shirt is opened, and we see her bare breast being fondled
by an invisible hand; also, an invisible hand opens the slit of a woman's skirt and
appears to fondle her bare leg. A man watches a woman in another building take off her
shirt and skirt (her bra and her thong-clad buttocks are visible) and she closes the
shades as she begins taking off her bra; in another scene she does the same, only she
removes her bra and her bare breasts are visible. We see a heat-sensor image of a nude
man's front side; also, we see a man's groin area part-way through his
"disappearing" process. A man drops the towel he's wearing, revealing his bare
backside to the camera and his front side to two women; we also see his bare backside and
chest when he's convulsing on a table during an experiment. A woman's bare breasts are
visible through her open robe, a picture of a topless woman is visible as a man looks at a
centerfold magazine, a few women wear cleavage- and/or midriff-revealing shirts, and we
see the side of a woman's bare thigh while she's sitting on a toilet. We see a woman
wearing a shirt and panties get out of bed; she later puts on pants, and a man who was in
bed with her also gets out and puts on his pants.
VIOLENCE/GORE 9 - A person is pushed into a pipe, causing a large bloody
gash on the person's face and neck; a few times we see the body lying on the ground (with
an extremely bloody face and neck) and we eventually see the person choke a bit before
dying. A person is impaled through the chest, causing a bloody and fatal wound; another
person is stabbed with a pole, which is then pulled out of the bloody wound (another
person feels around inside the bloody wound and then tapes it up). A person is shot in the
heart with a tranquilizer, then the person's neck is twisted with a loud snapping sound. A
person is pushed into a pool, choked, and held underwater (we see the lifeless corpse
floating in the pool afterwards). A person falls down a fiery elevator chute and
presumably dies. A person is torched repeatedly; the person screams and we see burnt skin
falling off the body. We see a person holding a rope, and it's implied the rope is used to
strangle another person to death (we later see the body fall out of a locker). A dog is
thrown against the side of a cage (we briefly see some splattering through heat-sensitive
goggles). A mouse is picked up by something invisible and crushed (its bloody organs and
bones are visible); the scene turns out to be a computer program. A person is electrocuted
after hitting a fuse box with a tire iron. We see a red serum flow through an invisible
animal's veins, then watch the veins, muscles, bones, organs and skin slowly become
visible again (the animal makes loud noises and thrashes); at one point during the
process, the animal starts having a heart attack and is shocked with defibrillators a few
times and is then fine. After a person injects a serum into an I.V. tube, the person
starts convulsing violently, yelling, and eventually disappearing (during the process, we
see the person's muscles, organs and
bones). In another scene, we see a red serum flow
through the person's veins, then see the person convulse while bones, organs and muscles
reappear and then disappear. A person is bitten by an invisible animal (we hear him yell
and see blood on his hand). An invisible animal is shot with a tranquilizer; also, a
person tries to shoot another with a tranquilizer. A person is thrown face-first into a
pole, causing a bloody facial cut; a person is punched, kicked in the face, and then
knocked to the ground; a person punches another and knocks the person into a table; a
person kicks another; two people are slapped; a person steps on another's neck; a person
throws another around a bit and grabs the person's neck; a person is hit with a tire iron
and another is nearly hit with a tire iron; a person grabs another's leg as they're
climbing up a ladder, causing them both to fall and land on top of an elevator. An
elevator nearly crashes into a couple of people (it does hit one person's shoulder,
causing a bloody wound). A woman screams as she appears to be grabbed; the scene ends
immediately afterwards, but it's implied that she's raped. A person pours several bags of
blood on a floor (we see the bloody floor a few times); also, several people have bloody
hands, faces and clothing, and we see several bloody corpses as well. A person with
visible bones and muscles is seen a few times. Someone throws a test tube of chemicals,
causing an explosion; another very large, loud explosion causes windows to break and many
rooms to be consumed by fire (the flames nearly engulf a couple of people). A person
vomits invisible matter into a toilet.
PROFANITY 10 - About 45 F-words, several anatomical references, lots of
scatological references, many mild obscenities, many religious obscenities, and a few
insults. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Scientific experiments, playing God, megalomania,
jealousy, revenge.
MESSAGE - Megalomania can have deadly results.
