User Reviews

Should have disappeared before being released

If 500 monkeys typed on 500 typewriters for 500 years one of them might produce Hamlet. In two weeks, 12 of them would produce Mr. Superinvisible. This was a European attempt to duplicate Disney's successful family comedy format. They thought that by placing Dean Jones, a veteran of Disney films, in a starring role combined with the gimmick of invisibility they would produce a hit. Unfortunately, they were WRONG. Instead, they produced an idiotic, mind-numbing waste of time. Jones plays a scientist who receives a mysterious potion in the mail that bestows temporary invisibility upon whomever drinks it. When a gang of inept criminals learn of Jones' invisibility serum, naturally they go after him. There's a ridiculous chase scene and the climax is almost unbearably silly. Bad writing and overacting plague the film. It's the type of movie that gives the invisible man genre a bad name.
