I've always been a fan of Science Fiction movies especially films about Aliens from space of all kinds and sizes and, when I was a kid, I was terrified by the original movie, The Invasion of the Body Snatchers, with those pods that absorbed the mind and thoughts of those it were put next to it while they slept then, years later, another version of that movie came out and it was pretty good too then last year, one of my favorite TV shows of the season, featured another kind of Body Snatcher when newly hatched former humans emerged out of the oozing Everglades after a hurricane hit the...

The Invasion (2007) is a big budget movie initially directed by German film director Oliver Hirschbiegel and later James McTeigue. The film immediately begins in flashback mode showing Dr. Carol Bennell (Nicole Kidman) a psychiatrist rambling through pharmacy shelves searching for drugs and caffeine inundated drinks. The scene then moves to the accidental crash of the Patriot Space Shuttle. This incident is investigated by CDC Dr. Tucker Kaufman (Jeremy Northam) who is given a piece of the shuttle by a little girl. Infected by the space shuttle s fragment, he returns home bypasses a late...

I have enjoyed most of the movies that I have seen Nicole Kidman in and I am usually willing to give her movies a chance. I thought that The Invasion had potential when I saw trailers for it. I was only recently able to see the movie after finally renting it. Unfortunately it didn't live up to the potential. The space shuttle Patriot exploded when it reentered the atmosphere to land and debris was scattered all across the country. Tucker Kaufman, who worked for the CDC, became infected when a young girl came up to him and handed him a piece of the shuttle. Once Tucker went to sleep, the alien.

The 2007 remake of The Invasion of the Body Snatchers unfortunately is a dud. The problem lies in its paltry attempts to update the storyline for modern audiences. Screenwriter Dave Kajganich decides for some weird reason that The Invasion should be like The Discovery Channel and wastes precious screen time wallowing in the science-fiction reality by showing us in vivid 3d cells being consumed by a foreign parasite of some sort and literally rewriting the DNA. As a biologist, it s nice they tried to put effort into creating a plausible explanation for alien life and blah blah, but really now,.

The Invasion (2007), based off the movie Invasion of the Body Snatchers and the book The Body Snatchers (Jack Finney) is a taste of the past, as we remember those frightening cocoon people who s mind and bodies were absorbed through alien skin. I wasn t really sure what to expect because I hadn t seen the original movie in so long, but I am pretty much happy to see Nicole Kidman in anything. I ve loved her since her Tom Cruise days, and I am so happy that she got away from the couch-jumping nut case. However, I must say that The Invasion was a disappointment for me. I didn t really enjoy the..
