The Host
It's "Warm Bodies" meets "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" meets "Sybil" when aliens invade Earth
taking over humans and searching out the remaining resistors. Depending on your expectations, you may be disappointed or surprised by this movie. It is more of a human spirit story than science fiction. It is more of a battle over the body than the planet as symbiant and host begin to understand each other. Deep down it is basically another disguised silly love story by Stephenie Meyer. Some moments become comical, especially the love triangle that is more of a foursome. And apparently, these invaders prefer white uniforms, shiny silver vehicles, and Costco-like stores filled with generic brand products.
Alien gives it 2 ½ "Sci-Fi Meyerized" stars out of 4.
