I guess we're not really supposed to sympathize with Bacon's character in Hollow Man, but I feel the film would have been more effective if he was somewhat likable at the beginning.

I'm a little surprised that you rate Tourist Trap that high. It just bored me.

The nun's story is Psycho III just feels kind of shoehorned in in my opinion.

I thought you watched Tourist Trap because I recommended it.

I misunderstood what you meant about the nun's story. I thought you just meant that a nun and religious themes have no place in a Psycho movie. I agree that it is poorly handled in this movie though.

He's a bit of an asshole in the beginning (though a somewhat likable asshole imo) but that is part of what I find effective about the themes in the movie. Would a nice person do the same things as an Kevin Bacon if they had the power to get away with anything like he does? I consider myself a good person, but I often wonder. I think it would have been less interesting if they made him a nice guy to begin with.
