Average viewer score of 6.3/10 from 72 ratings.
Just as good as its predecessor, perhaps even slightly better in moments. All in all I narrowly prefer <em>'The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes'</em>, but <em>'Now You See Him, Now You Don't'</em> most certainly still produces solid fun. Everything revolves around invisibility this time, the stuff that Dexter & Co. get up to is suitably entertaining. Kurt Russell reprises the role of Dexter, again positively - no…
