Editorial Review:
Hollow Man 2 ups the ante established by Paul Verhoeven's 2000 science fiction thriller by involving not one but two invisible men in this direct-to-home-video sequel. Christian Slater is top billed as a former Army assassin who volunteers to undergo the same invisibility experiments endured by Kevin Bacon in the original film. Like before, Slater is rendered transparent but also dangerously unstable, and detectives Peter Facinelli and Laura Regan are called in to stop his killing spree. Scripter Joel Soisson has had a hand in most of the recent horror/thriller franchise sequels (Hellraiser, Dracula, Mimic, and others), so he understands what's required to draw in genre fans (violence, special effects, nudity); what he's less capable at producing is an un-cliched script, which essentially strands Swiss director Claudio Fah and the cast (who are much better than the material). Undiscerning horror enthusiasts might check this out hoping for a quick thrill--and they'll find it here, but not much else. -- Paul Gaita
This sequel to Paul Verhoven's 2000 blockbuster sees Christian Slater replacing Kevin Bacon as the titular assassin. The result of a top-secret military experiment gone awry the Hollow Man is an invisible unstoppable killing machine and he has his sights firmly set on a Seattle detective (William MacDonald SLITHER) and a biologist (Laura Regan THEY MY LITTLE EYE). Now the pair must somehow manage to find their predator before he finds them while staying clear of the government forces who are close on their tail.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: HORROR Rating: R UPC: 043396145436 Manufacturer No: 14543

Rating:  - Hollow Sequel. Don't Waste Your Time
Those who have seen the first Hollow Man will certainly find this "sequel" bad. The acting is poor, the sets are poor, special effects mediocre and you may not notice that Christian Slater is in it if you don't look at the credits.
The story begins with a cranky scientist who says he kills monkeys for a living being thrown around at a party by some invisible force. He nearly gets thrown out of a window, then gets his throat cut in the bathroom. All the while, there was no visible assailant. ... Read More
Rating:  - More like Verhoven
The original film that was directed by Paul Verhoven was a step away from his classic action film and took the form of a thriller. The sequal to the Film HollowMan 2 Takes it back ti the action genre.

A due of a scientist and a police detective team up to find and stop the killer and it soon comes down to Hollow ... Read More
Rating: - Well, Christian Slater Is an Invisible Man ... Not a Good Career Choice, I Believe
I didn't particularly find Paul Verhoeven-directed `Hollow Man' impressive and I actually thought its characters are stupid and the story was silly (tell me, who would like to be absolutely invisible without thinking about its risk?), but the plot of the sequel is even more preposterous, After the promising opening ten minutes, the film soon runs out of gas, depending on so-so set-pieces and countless plot conventions.
The story is, in short, about an invisible killing machine Griffin (played ... Read More
Rating: - Extremely Great......
Okay, this wasn't too bad for a direct to video release. The story was pretty good. Basically, this is about a dective and a doctor who must team up to stop a rouge soldier. Who is bent on getting revenge for what happened to him. When he took part in a experiment, that left him invisble. Check it out, it's a great movie!!!!
Rating: - Not Too Bad
The first Hollow Man was sort of an invisible man meets alien film with the title character going nuts in an underground installation. This one is more like the original Claude Raines movies. Two cops get drawn into a murder case and are immediately superceded by the military. But when one of them dies protecting someone related to the case, the lead detective, who tries so hard to be Tom Cruise, goes on a vengeance campaign to find out why his partner had to die.
There is an invisible man (unimaginatively ... Read More
