BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment
Nonureva Really Surprised!
Stoutor It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.
TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
Kirpianuscus sure, it is far to be the right word. but it is the most comfortable. for a beautiful story, for a great job from Jessica Alba, for the touching atmosphere, for the performances of Marylouise Burke and J.K. Simmons. maybe because I am teacher, Mona Gray seems to me one of the most seductive characters from the last decade of cinema. because this job remains a refuge, has deep roots in the experiences of childhood, impose a form of train of exercises to escape from yourself. if a sin of film must be defined, it is , maybe, the desire of director to be a complete work - from traumas to the love story. but it is a small, almost insignificant sin. so, a lovely/touching film.
J Cadaoas In this movie Jesica Alba's dad developed a mental illness. Due to emotional turmoil Jessica Alba developed OCD and turned to numbers in hopes that she can find the right numbers to get her life the way it was when she was young, and she believes that if she doesn't do these things like eat soap or whatever weird things she does that her Father would not come back to her, so she throws everything she cares about and lives a solitary life in hopes that her Dad would come back to Her. So she confines herself in numbers and weird soap eating habits but in the end, she figures out something that changed her life, what if she didn't do these weird habits, would something bad happen in her life?ps. I get the movie because I have OCD too. Also I gave this movie a 10 out of 10 because it changed my life.
rcarol321 This movie is not your stereotypical happy ending movie. In someways, Ms. Gray reminds me of Miss Honey in Matilda. And as a child, she reminds me perhaps to Mary in The Secret Garden. Its plot, theme, and screenplay were tied together very nicely. Jessica Alba's performance was outstanding. Ms. Gray's character personality you see may be mistaken as shy but it is quite beyond that. For those of us that enjoy the language of numbers understand how to communicate with the universe. Because numbers you see are reliable.This particular film can be greatly misunderstood. Watch this film with an open mind and let your heart be just vulnerable enough as you are introduced to the world of a bizarre child. We must never judge a book by its cover as is commonly said. An Invisible Sign is so very underrated. It is not easy to grasp just as much as life itself isn't easy to grasp. Worth its every minute.
convar Cute, nice movie of the paternal and filial love. There is a girl who can not grow up unable to integrate into the adult world of his father's mental degradation because of this has gained in childhood trauma is still unable to process.The trailer already I think a bit misleading, because it is much more serious than what the film suggests... the film is not really an easy mood. In addition, the film has a charm that is hard to describe... rather not try it, must see.Jessica Alba is perhaps the best films of the hosts next to Robert Rodriguez. It was very good finally see a drama, a film which does not carry the beauty of those who underwent surgery. Anyway, just had time for such a role, although as you read this, thanks also to America Ferrera :)
