Today, I have brought a 2014 action adventure comedy film called, “The Invisible Boy.”
It follows the story of a 13 year old boy, who gets the power of invisibility one day.
He uses his newly gained power to take revenge on his bullies, spy on his female classmates,
and do crazy things without getting caught.
But everything changes for him when a mysterious group of people begin hunting him endlessly
to control his power.
To know what happens, watch till the end.
At the beginning of the film, we see a young boy named Michele Silenzi, who is cycling
to his school in Trieste, Italy.
After entering his class, he sits behind his crush named Stella and secretly records her
video.
Suddenly, a police officer named Giovanna comes there, who also happens to be Michele’s
mother.
She is there to inquire about the disappearance of a student named Martino Breccia.
Giovanna requests all the students to inform the police if they learn anything about Martino.
After she leaves, Michele’s nose starts to bleed.
So he quickly rushes to the bathroom to stop the bleeding.
But then, two bullies come there and steal Michele’s money.
Afterwards, he returns home disheartened, as he was saving his money to buy a costume
for a party.
He grabs whatever money he has left and goes to buy a costume that he can afford.
He goes to a small shop, looking for a superhero costume.
So the shopkeeper hands him a plain skin-tight costume.
Although Michele doesn’t like the costume, he buys it anyway, as he doesn’t have any
other alternative.
When Giovanna returns home, she sees Michele in his costume refusing to go to the party,
because he thinks he doesn’t look cool.
But Giovanna convinces him to go to the party, saying that superheroes don’t need to look
cool to be superheroes.
At the party, Michele talks to Stella and is beginning to enjoy the party.
But then, the bullies play a recorded video of Stella.
When Stella asks who recorded it, the bullies reveal that they found it on Michele’s phone,
who has been stalking her for a while.
Michele feels embarrassed and quickly locks himself in the bathroom.
He is frustrated by his situation and wishes that he had the power to become invisible.
He jumps out of the bathroom window and runs home.
The next morning, he wakes up and goes straight to the bathroom.
When he goes to brush his teeth, he looks in the mirror and shockingly realises that
he has become invisible.
He quickly takes off his robe, only to find that his entire body has become invisible.
Just then, his mother walks in and is unable to see Michele.
While she looks around for Michele, he quickly leaves a note on the bed, saying that he has
gone to school early.
Michele is confused by his situation and decides to go to school by covering his entire body
with long-sleeved clothes.
At school, he sees his bully and plans to take his revenge on him.
So he takes off all his clothes and walks inside the school naked and invisible.
In class, Michele cautiously picks up the bully’s paintball gun and fires it on the
teacher, because of which the teacher suspend the bully.
Michele then goes to the tennis court and takes his revenge on another bully, because
of which he loses the game.
Michele then goes to the girl’s changing room, where he watches all the girls undress.
Suddenly, one of the girls unknowingly throws a towel on top of him, making his presence
known to everyone.
On top of that, his powers begin to fade and he becomes visible.
When the girls remove the towel, they scream in horror when they see a naked Michele casually
sitting there.
When Giovanna learns about this, she tries talking to Michele to understand him, but
Michele tells her that he is perfectly fine.
He doesn’t reveal his power to his mother, as he fears that she will not believe him.
The next day at class, a psychologist named Giorgio gives a lecture on teens’ mental
health to educate the students, as another student has gone missing.
During the lecture, Michele’s hands begin to glow and eventually become invisible.
But before anyone could find out about his superpowers, the class is over and he runs
out of there.
When he returns home, he finds his little sister Candela in his room.
Michele faces the wall to hide his invisibility and tells Candela to go downstairs.
Candela gets suspicious of his behaviour and pretends to leave the room.
When Michele removes his clothes and reveals his invisibility, Candela screams in horror,
as she can’t see her brother.
Michele calms her down and tells her that his costume may have given him the power to
become invisible.
But the downside of this superpower is that he has no control of his invisibility, which
means he can become invisible or visible anytime.
Meanwhile, at the police station, all the officers and the psychiatrist are discussing
about the disappearance of some children.
Giovanna believes that the children are kidnapped, but Giorgio argues that the children have
run away from their home, which is very normal for their age.
When Giovanna returns home, she talks to her mother on phone and reveals that Michele is
adopted.
Unbeknownst to her, Michele hears the conversation and is stunned to learn that he is adopted.
He goes to a nearby swing to process what he just learned.
Shortly afterwards, Stella comes there.
When she sees the swing moving by itself, she believes that it’s a ghost.
But instead of running away in fear, she asks him to be her friend and plays with him.
One night, Michele goes to meet Stella.
Despite not knowing the identity of her invisible friend, Stella is happy to have him around
and feels an attraction to him.
As the two are about to kiss, Michele’s powers begin to fade.
So he quickly runs away before Stella can see his face.
Later, when Stella is practising alone in her gymnastics class, someone fires a tranquillizing
dart at her, causing her to fall unconscious.
Michele walks by and sees a mysterious masked man carrying Stella.
Michele tries to fight the guy, but he manages to escape with the girl.
Later, Stella wakes up in a mysterious facility, where some doctors are conducting some tests
on her.
After the tests, she is sent to a cell, where she sees the two children who went missing
recently.
Meanwhile, Michele goes to a nearby beach to plan his next move.
Just then, a mysterious blind man comes there and answers all of Michele’s questions before
he can even ask them.
He reveals that he can read people’s minds.
He also reveals that his name is Andreij and he is Michele’s father.
Andreij explains that he is from a small town in Russia, where a devastating nuclear explosion
once destroyed his beloved town.
The people who survived the explosion, their DNA mutated because of the radiation, which
then gave them unique superpowers.
Because of this, they were brought to a military camp, where the government wanted to train
them and use them as weapons.
But the downside of their powers was that the more they used their powers, the weaker
they became.
During the training, Andreij meets Yelena, Michele’s mother.
The two fell in love and gave birth to Michele, who was born with superpowers.
Since the government took Michele away from them, Andreij and Yelena decided to run away
from the military camp with their son.
But since the people from the camp kept chasing them, Yelena decided to stay back and stop
them, while Andreij ran away with Michele as far as possible.
Although Andreij managed to run away, Yelena was killed by the army.
After coming to Europe, Andreij chose Giovanna to raise Michele, as he wasn’t safe with
him.
But the people from the camp have managed to find them and are kidnapping children to
find if they have any superpowers.
Andreij hands Michele a suit, that is capable of turning invisible along with Michele’s
body.
He then bids goodbye to his son and leaves.
Later, when Giovanna is not around, Giorgio goes to meet Michele, as he suspects that
he may be the child he is looking for.
While talking, Michele notices Giorgio’s hand injury, which is at the same place where
he attacked the masked man.
Realising that he may be the kidnapper, Michele tries to run away.
But Giorgio has locked all the doors and Michele can’t escape.
So Michele wears his mother’s suit and gets invisible to escape.
He manages to get on the streets, where he finds the bully and asks him to drive away
quickly.
Once they reach a safe place, Michele reveals himself to the bully and tells him about the
kidnapping of their classmates.
Meanwhile, Stella and the other two children try to escape from the ventilation on the
ceiling by climbing on top of each other.
Stella manages to escape outside and makes her way to a tower, where she finds a searching
light.
Believing that her invisible friend is looking for her, she makes a smiling face on the light
and flashes it up to the sky.
Michele sees the smiling face and realises that Stella is trying to signal him.
So he and the bully follow the light to save their friends.
But as soon as they get there, Stella is caught by the guards.
The bully uses his paintball gun to create a distraction by causing an electric malfunction.
Michele gets invisible and goes inside to save his friends.
He sees Giorgio and his men monitoring Giovanna and Andreij, who are looking for Michele together.
Michele then proceeds to free his friends.
He knocks out a guard and then threatens another guard using a gun to open the cell where Stella
and the others are trapped.
After getting them out safely, Michele reveals himself to his friends, who are very much
surprised by this revelation.
As the boys make their escape, Stella stops them and insists that they should save an
old man whom she saw being locked in another room.
So Michele and Stella proceed to save the old man, but Stella takes him straight to
the enemies and then points a gun at Michele.
It is revealed that the old man Stella saw earlier is the one controlling her.
He reveals that he has the power to mind control anyone.
He has been controlling Giorgio and Stella to get Michele to him.
Andreij and Giovanna reach the port, where they find the bully.
The old man directs his men to bring down a submarine with Michele and Stella in it,
as he plans to escape and return to Russia.
They also have set explosives in the building, which is about to explode soon.
Giovanna frees the two children from the building and searches for Michele everywhere, but he
is nowhere to be found.
Meanwhile, Michele discovers that he has telekinetic powers, which he then uses to destroy the
submarine.
He then gets on an escape pod with Stella and manages to get to the surface.
Later, Michele flaunts his invisibility powers in front of everyone to show them that superheroes
do exist.
Andreij tells Michele that he can’t just show off his power to everyone, as the bad
people will keep coming after him.
So he decides to remove everyone’s memories of the incident to keep everyone safe.
Michele agrees and goes to confess his love for Stella.
He kisses her for the last time before she forgets about him.
Andreij then uses his powers and removes everyone’s memories of the incident.
So everyone returns to their normal life and no one remembers about the incident.
In the next scene, we see that Yelena, who was thought to be dead, somehow managed to
survive.
She had defeated the division back then and is now ruling it.
It turns out that she was the one who sent those people to get Michele back to her.
A guard informs her that although they lost Michele, they have found his twin sister Natasha
hiding somewhere in Morocco.
It turns out that Andreji ran away with two children that day from the camp.
Yelena now wants to reunite with her children and use their powers to rule the world.
So this was the story of “The Invisible Boy.”
