Griff the Invisible is also different from all the other offerings because the others hit you over the head with the predictable moral that superheros are just a fantasy (like we don't know that) and that reality is better than fantasy. Without giving anything away, this film turns that moral on it's head. For once a movie doesn't make you feel guilty about your adolescent fantasies!
The movie was very well received by the Festival crowd with healthy applause and even some yells of appreciation at the end. I think the movie was mostly appreciated for the likability of the characters, the humour, the fresh writing style and just the general entertainment value.
Now, I can't really say if I liked the movie or not. I loved the idea of the invisibility cloak made by soaking a suit in invisible ink and other quirky ideas like that, but in the end we are talking about weird romance and not superheroes, a switch that comes into play around the middle of the film. If you feel out of place in the "real world" you might feel the vibe that connects you to the characters, but the underlying drama of it all made me feel more uncomfortable than I would have wanted. Is Griff insane or not? And if yes, is that OK if he found the girl willing to love and enable him in his insanity? Watch the film and answer for yourself.
Totally clean humor fun. Glad I paid attention to details that make it LOL funny numerous times, both at the characters and myself.
Nothing at all like other recent similarly framed films.
With surprises along the way, Griff is a refreshing a dash of fantasy science fiction, with a focus that reminds me that innovation starts with imagination - portrayed in a simple way that brings it all down to earth.
Though there was heartbreak, it ended perfectly; plus an extra star for appreciating kitties.
Griff has a secret though. There is a reason he chooses not to have any friends and only works rote office jobs. He is a superhero. At night, he scans the streets with a telescope and a bank of computers from his apartment searching out ruffians intent on harming neighborhood women. The police commissioner will call him with tips and thanks for a job well done. To keep his superhero costume in working order and incorporate new technologies, Griff visits a local hardware store and always warns the cashier to forget he was ever there.
Melody (Maeve Dermody) also has a secret. She realizes that since there is so much space between the atoms in our bodies and the atoms in walls that if she aligns herself just right, she can walk through walls. She happens across Griff and is mesmerized. Here is a kindred spirit. Melody cannot stand the workaday men who fancy her because they see the world as it really is. Griff, on the other hand, does not see hardly any reality and this strikes Melody as the most wonderful thing she has ever seen.
The story and interactions between aloof Griff and curious Melody work. They have a special conversational style and truly understand one another. When they are on screen together, the film works. Unfortunately, when they are apart and it is just Griff and his superhero activities, the film is a complete mess. Griff is really not a very interesting character when it is just him in his apartment trying out new superhero ideas. Melody is the character the audience cares about and wants to watch, so whenever she is off screen, you spend that time just waiting for her to reappear.

- QuizThe multi button phones seen in the office scenes are Exicom BT-450 ISDN phones. Exicom went bankrupt many years ago and these phones popped up later on the Tennyson SOX PABX but were dark grey rather than white.
- Citazioni
Melody: Mum?
Bronwyn: Hmm?
Melody: Do you think that this life, our existence... do you think it's an accident? Or do you think it's planned for a reason?
Bronwyn: Oh, um. Oh, I think...
Melody: ...and try and ignore religion.
Bronwyn: Ignore religion. Um. Well, I think it's like gymnastics. I think that life was inevitable. I mean however it was created, whatever happened, you know? Whoever did it. I mean you look at the stars and your see infinity. You look into a microscope and you see infinity. Smack bang in the middle, between those two extremities, perched on a balance-beam, is us. Life. In the middle. Inevitable.
