Ryan Kwanten of TV's True Blood stars in this charming, quirky and totally unpredictable romantic comedy about the superhero in all of us. Griff (Kwanten), a shy and awkward office worker by day, finds escape from his ordinary life by assuming the identity of a fantastic superhero each night. Griff's secret is jeopardized when he meets Melody (Maeve Dermody), a cute but unconventional daydreamer. She quickly becomes fascinated by his idiosyncrasies, which are equal only to her own. In the face of mounting pressure to live in the "real world," it's up to Melody to rescue Griff the Invisible for the sake of herself, Griff and their newfound love for each other.

Griff was quite peculiar, and I mean both the film and the character. It took me a while before I was able to fully distinguish between fantasy and reality. The filmmakers did a great job of confusing me, I have to give them credit for that. The film has a little bit of everything; a little bit of comedy, a little bit of drama, and a little bit of romance, none of which dominates over everything else. It’s probably the reason why I’m not giving it a higher rating. I think that much more could have been gotten out of the premise, and it feels as if the filmmakers got stuck about halfway through. The film is as odd as the two main characters, and I approached it from two points of view. On the one hand, it shows what it’s like when a person who lives beyond reality is truly understood. On the other, it answers the question as to why it’s not a good idea for two people to start a relationship when both of them have a problem with an addiction of some sort. Finally, I can't help but comment on Maeve Dermody. In the past, I would have called her a beautiful, sexy woman, but that's not allowed anymore, so I won't do that. / Lesson learned: If you're trying to walk through a wall, don't do it with a running start.
