Trivia:

To get the right reaction from the cast, Paul Verhoeven had speakers put in different places on the set, and had Kevin Bacon's voice come from different speakers so the cast would genuinely react to the invisible character moving around. For the scene with the invisible gorilla, the director screamed to the microphone imitating gorilla noises.

Goofs:

Continuity: When pouring the face mold on Caine's invisible head to make the mask it appears as though his head is shaved completely bald, yet in later scenes (swimming pool) it is clear that he has hair. No bald cap or similar covering is shown protecting the hair, but without it, the hair would become embedded in the latex.

Quotes:

[Sebastian is driving home, and stops at a light. A boy and girl in the car beside him see him]
Boy in Car: Hey, look. Look! Look at that.
Girl in Car: Man, he's weird.
[Sebastian lifts his shades, to show his hollow eyes; and opens his mouth, to show his hollow mouth]
Boy in Car: Mom! Mommy!
[girl screams]
Boy in Car: Look!
Mom: What?
Boy in Car: A ghost!
Mom: Don't be ridiculous. There's nothing out there.

Good, but not great.

Hollow Man boasts some pretty impressive visual effects and does have an intriguing story. Kevin Bacon plays Sebastion Caine, an arrogant scientist who develops a serum for invisibility. Withholding information from his superiors, Caine tests his serum on himself and undergoes a transformation that is quite visually arresting. It's like an anatomy book come to life. But while Caine's transformation and subsequent experiments with his new found power prove interesting, the movie fails to capture what it feels like to truly be invisible. Caine says to his colleagues, "You have know idea how much fun this is." In truth, we don't. We see Caine slowly going mad and trapping his fellow scientists in the lab when they threaten to go public. But, we don't get any sense of power from Caine. True he does venture out into public and enters the apartment of his very fetching neighbor, but that's about all the real world we see with Caine. It would've been interesting to see Caine in the real world, and what would've been done to capture him. Instead, we have Bacon, Elisabeth Shue and Josh Brolin and a few others mixing it up in a hidden lab somewhere in D.C. While the actors try to make the best with what they have, Paul Verhoeven tries to goose us a little. He succeeds in a few instances, and he does manage to hold your attention for a while, but the ending is the weakest link in the movie. Had there been a stronger ending, the movie would've been a little better. As it is now, it's a good exercise in visual effects territory, but there are so many other possibilities that lay with the story of an invisible human being.
