The Invisible Man Returns Ratings & Reviews
Cine-Mundial
Don Q.
The process of restoring the protagonists visibility is probably the most exceptional part of the movie... a satisfying morbid curiosity. [Full review in Spanish]
The Nippu Jiji (Honolulu)
James T. Hamada
Sir Cedric, who distinguished himself In "On Borrowed Time" and "The Hunchback of Notre Dame," turns In a fine performance but the most outstanding Is Vincent Price's voice.
Harrison's Reports
P.S. Harrison
Although not as good as the first "Invisible Man" pic- ture, this melodrama offers enough novelty, excitement, and even comedy to please the action fans.
Brooklyn Daily Eagle
Herbert Cohn
The little man who wasn't there is having company this week, wherever he Is. His guest Is a big man Vincent Price, 6 feet 2 inches or so... We hope they are enjoying each other's company, for both of them have entertained us well.
Photoplay
Shadow Stage
This involved mind-shattering monstrosity of a plot is absolutely fascinating.
The Film Daily
Film Daily Staff
Picture has all the necessary ingredients for a good mystery yarn, plus the unusual central character who disappears and re-appears before your eyes due to a secret formula.
Boxoffice Magazine
Boxoffice Staff
Plenty of excitement for the thriller fans.
Washington Star
Harry MacArthur
The Invisible Man Returns is at its best when it is not occupying itself with something it would like you to take seriously.
TV Guide
TV Guide Staff
The standard effects are used to their fullest, with Price accidentally reappearing at the wrong times and the proverbial floating gun that takes the guilty party by surprise.
Antagony & Ecstasy
Tim Brayton
A creative expansion on the original's story that uses the same hook to significantly different, more humane ends.
Variety
Variety Staff
Stripped of the horror angles of its forerunner, The Invisible Man Returns is a fantastic tale of the impossible -- but unfolded in such a manner that it maintains interest throughout despite its basic incredibility.
New York Times
Frank S. Nugent
The Invisible Man Returns is a mite on the ghostly side, too, although neither so horrendous nor so humorous as the first one was.
Kalamazoo Gazette
James Sanford
Lots of fun
Kansas City Kansan
Steve Crum
Fun Universal programmer, original is of course better
Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN)
Bob Bloom
Another wonderful Universal B-horror film with Vincent Price giving a wonderful vocal performance; as usual the special effects are first-rate for the era.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Ken Hanke
Good, but not great sequel to the original Whale classic.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
A very good sequel to "The Invisible Man (33)," though not as imaginative as the original.
