Use this film as a sleep aid Customer Review Rated Bad 3 - 3 out of 10
"Invisible Waves" is an inert, colorless, lifeless, and soulless exercise in tedium. I had high hopes for this film, having greatly enjoyed this director's previous film, "Last Life in the Universe". "Last Life" provided characters about whom the viewer could care; "Invisible Waves" provides none.

Christopher Doyle's cinematography compounds this film's problems. Filmed in Phuket, Macau, and Hong Kong, the viewer might expect some striking and colorful scenery. The opposite is true. Doyle sucks the life out of each of these settings with his almost colorless, bland technique.

The biggest problem with "Invisible Waves" is that it seeks to be an intimate character study, but Asano Tadanobu's acting is expressionless and the director shuns any close-up shots, so the viewer is shut out of the film's central character.

"Invisible Waves" is a long, slow slog to futility. I cannot recommend it to anyone.
