Just got back from seeing this movie, and with all honesty i can say that i really enjoyed it! Usually i turn to the general consensus of IMDb to get a feel for movies, but don't be convinced by the majority of posters, this was a good movie. I'm not entirely sure why so many people had a problem with this film? Maybe they were upset with the their interpretation of the trailer, thinking it was something that it wasn't? I know when i saw the trailer, i thought it was going to be a "Ghost solves his own murder movie", and granted that looked cool, but now that I've seen it, I'm actually glad there was more to it than that. The Invisible was a story of a Boy who gets a chance to see the lives of people from a different point of view. I'm going to try to a state a few examples without spoiling anything. First of all I'm not saying The Invisible was inspirationally deep and meaningful. It wasn't, but it wasn't created to be. It was however, entertaining, and in some moments original. The bird scene for example, was different. The evolving relationship between Nick and Annie was, in it's own way, beautiful & thought provoking. The idea of 'spirit & body separating' was nothing new to cinema, although the interactions Nick has with his surroundings, how he imagined and experienced scenarios that weren't happening at all was entertaining. More so, the soundtrack for the Invisible was perfect. The movie was good, true to it's trailer or not. I would easily recommend this to anyone. And to anyone who has something uncreative to say (negative or positive) why don't you go ahead and create a story line, hire some actors, shoot on beautiful location's, and THEN, come in here and deconstruct someone Else's work.

Thanks to my girl, she used her "girlfriend" powers to make me see this movie.
