Invisible Sister

Teenager Cleo's school science project goes quite awry, causing her popular older sister Molly to go invisible. Cleo is a student whose science project mistakenly makes her older sister Molly invisible.

Definitely liking or not a movie depends more on our state of mind than the movie itself, totally freaked out, extremely exaggerated, completely absurd, I'm totally delivered captivated... Incredible the power of standardizing various iconic situations and daydreams swallowing as something normal and commonplace, discovered by teenagers, almost children, one sister replacing the other as if they were twins, among other absurdities and the like of Disney movies... We love...

The Invisible Sister is a 2015 fantasy starring Rowan Blanchard and Paris Beric. It tells the tale of two sisters one is popular,the other isn't. But when the youngest sister Cleo(Blanchard) accidentally does a science project on invisibility,she accidentally makes her eldest popular sister Molly(Beric) Invisible.

But will Cleo find an antidote to bring her sister back within 24 hours. Overall I found it enjoyable .

Here is one of Disney Channel's lower quality Halloween movies. The same audience that enjoyed Girl vs. Monster will also enjoy this one. This movie is about two invisible sisters, one metaphorically and the other literally. But what isn't so invisible are the flaws. Through much of the film the actors seem to forget that they're not supposed to be able to see the invisible person they are talking to. Often they are looking right in her eyes as she is speaking to them. This is just one example of how it comes across that not a lot of attention was given to detail. This movie felt more like a really long Disney sitcom episode than a movie. The setting is Louisiana during Halloween but it doesn't feel much like either. Things don't get the slightest bit spooky till close to the very end.

I give Disney a lot of leeway with their made for tv films. They are going for a very specific (and frankly important) niche. Preteen girls need to have their voice echoed on screens and Disney is one of the very few companies that makes a concerted effort in that area. That niche comes with certain freedoms, but it also binds their hands in important ways as well. I get that. And I allow for that.

Even with me cutting them slack, this was a pretty poor effort on their part. The chose to tell a science based story, but the script seems written by that high school kid who hated science, never bothered to understand it, and assumed you didn't either. The rules for the sister's invisibility make absolutely no sense. They are in consistently applied to the point of distraction. The entire course of action by the sisters after one of them turns invisible makes absolutely no sense. course of action by the sisters after one of them turns invisible makes absolutely no sense. Their priorities are so warped my 11-year-old was utterly befuddled. Every drop of drama and tension in the script was contrived and unnecessary. Even the Disney homebase, passionate heart melting speeches about the importance of sisterhood and friendship, fell like dead fish from the mouths of the poor actresses who were forced by the Disney machine to be in this movie.

In short, this whole movie was one long wtf?!?!

The latest use that the Disney Studios has made of its teen stars is with Rowan Blanchard as the shy and retiring younger sister of Paris Bereic who's as popular as Blanchard is shy. In fact Blanchard's only real friend is fellow science geek Karan Brar.

Blanchard's smart though and she accidentally gets the secret of invisibility and unfortunately turns her sister invisible. That's not good because among other things Bereic has to compete in a high school Lacrosse tournament for a scholarship.

Both sisters get a handle on that one with scenes reminiscent of Disney's The Absent Minded Professor when Fred MacMurray's discovery of Flubber turns his hapless college basketball team into winners.

It was interesting to hear Karan Brar perform without accent. Though he's of Indian ancestry he was raised in the USA and in both Jessie and Bunk'd Brar takes on the Indian speech pattern.

Invisible Sister is an enjoyable teen comedy from The Magic Kingdom and at least while Blanchard and Brar operate under a deadline at least she wasn't faced with going insane like poor Claude Rains was.
