---|---|---|---|
United States | San Francisco Chronicle | "Though more or less a comedy, the picture gives Chase a chance to do much more than smirk and be a wise guy, while providing a good showcase for his dry style of humor" | POS |
United States | Los Angeles Times | "Memoirs of an Invisible Man doesn't earn its seriousness. It fades into invisibility while you're watching it" | NEG |
United Kingdom | Empire | "As a vehicle for spectacular special effects and a bunch of stupendously stoopid sight-gags, it’s really all you need for a highly enjoyable if none-too-memorable hour and a half." | NEU |
United States | Chicago Sun-Times | "This material is intriguing enough that I wish there had been more of it" | POS |
United States | Boston Globe | "While Memoirs of an Invisible Man has its moments - like so many Chevy Chase movies - you spend an awful lot of time waiting between laughs" | NEU |
United States | Chicago Tribune | "Despite the superficial Hitchcock trappings, from the Bay Area locales to trains and high places, the comedy thriller is neither particularly comic nor particularly thrilling" | NEG |
United States | The Washington Post | "Memoirs of an Invisible Man isn't a movie. It's an identity crisis" | NEG |
