Sure, it’s fun watching the DC and Marvel men run around with their massive biceps, annihilating villains with otherworldly powers and weapons, but it’s Hollywood’s obsession with the surreal that makes a more modest superhero production like Griff the Invisible all the more appealing. No, Griff doesn’t fly, crush monsters or become invisible for that matter, but the guy is able to use his lack of extraordinary abilities to more impressively sway us with the ordinary.Watch Griff the Invisible Movie Online
Griff’s (Ryan Kwanten) got it rough. Not only is he stuck at a desk all day, but he’s also the office recluse. When he’s not hiding out in his cubicle or getting picked on by office bully, Tony (Toby Schmitz), Griff’s at home monitoring his high tech computer system and radars, keeping an eye on the area for any criminal activity. Why? Because when Griff’s not at work, he’s the superhero Griff the Invisible.
Well, actually, he’s not invisible just yet, but he does have a slew of the traditional superhero goodies like a killer costume and some wicked battle skills. Problem is, his identity isn’t really a secret. His brother, Tim (Patrick Brammall), knows what he’s up to and, thanks to the problems Griff’s moonlighting habits caused in the past, he doesn’t think it’s a particularly healthy side job. However, in Tim’s effort to nudge Griff in a more “normal” direction, he winds up introducing him to one of few people who not only accepts Griff for who he is, but encourages it, Melody (Maeve Dermody).
No, there aren’t as many wannabe superhero movies as there are Marvel and DC CGI adventures, but recently, we’ve seen more than ever, with Kick-Ass, Defendor and Super all arriving in the last year. So now, the question is, does Griff offer a fresh take on the sub-genre? Yes. Does it work? Not entirely.
Griff’s innovation comes from the uncertainty of what Griff’s really capable of. Sure, he rocks a seemingly authentic costume and appears to be able to handle himself in a fight, but there’s also quite a bit to suggest that Griff isn’t as professional as he seems. Ford does a fantastic job of introducing us to our main man and making him instantly worthy of our sympathy. It’s this connection that not only holds your attention from beginning to end, but makes the viewer invested in the experience. Watch Griff the Invisible Movie Online
From there, Ford compels you to maintain that connection by dissecting Griff, layer by layer. Griff experiences an intense character arc, as not only does he change extensively from beginning to end, but the audience’s perspective of him changes, too. A prime element to this shift is how much credit Ford gives his audience. Griff’s growth isn’t spoon-fed in the least; in fact, Ford often leaves it to the viewer to discover the truth in a moment, a tactic that could leave several plot points up for debate, but one that also makes Griff the Invisible an interactive experience, as it requires the audience to think.
Kwanten also deserves a great deal of credit, as he’s able to have fun with the character while keeping control of Griff’s transformation. Griff is the kind of guy who forces you to consider every facial twist, sigh and stare in an effort to figure him out. Kwanten’s performance suggests he has a concrete understanding of who Griff is and 110% gives himself to the role. To View The Full HD : free movies online for free
