NICOLE KIDMAN IS GREAT! GO WATCH THIS MOVIE!
Jul 03, 2008

I had the opportunity to watch a free screening of this movie and although I've never seen the original I think Nicole Kidman was great in this film. She even convinced the director to add the real life car crash scene... Full review
Poor movie, wasted potential!

This movie had potential but poor story line and even poorer ending ruinded it for me. If not for the stunning beauty of Nicole Kidman, I would have hated the movie. This one is bound to be out on DVD pretty... Full review

While returning to Earth, the space-bus explodes and the fragments bring an alien virus that recodes the human DNA. In Washington, the psychiatrist Carol Bennell (Nicole Kidman) observes the modification of the behavior of one of her clients first, then... Full review

Very good remake. Kidman of course is great. Musch scarier than the originals. What is odd is that a critic would give this movie a c+ but give the terrible and awful film SUPERBAD a B...that makes no sense (Roper and... Full review
Blame it on the Hollywood suits

I honestly don't think the movie is worth an 8, not in its released form. But since the cuts and additions from the suits are so painfully obvious, I'm willing to give a higher rating to the movie that could... Full review
Pretty dumb ending

It also would have been nice to see more aliens killed. Several times Nicole has guns and then strangely throws them away after using them. Doesn't make any sense. It is totally action packed until the 3 minute ending. Then they... Full review

Taunt and Smart, Kidman shines here.

wji222 - imdb.com
First of all, this is not a scary movie. Instead, there is an atmosphere of tenseness, especially when Kidman and Craig's characters must pretend to have already changed in order to survive. Kidman easily carries this film, and she makes... Full review

We went to see this last night. After all of the horrific reviews, I was expecting a real P.O.S. I was pleasantly surprised. While not to say it was an AWESOME movie or anything. It was good Sci Fi fun.... Full review
I Kept an Open Mind

You hafta' go into every movie with an open mind if you're going to give it a fair assessment, right? Well, I did exactly that with "The Invasion". Despite all the heavy and (quite) ugly criticism this movie received, it had... Full review

Chicago Sun-Times
Here is a great story born to be creepy, and the movie churns through it like a road company production. By this point, the movie has lost all coherence, not to mention flaunting a scene where a helicopter lands atop a towering skyscraper in Washington, where federal law decrees no building can be taller than the Capitol. ...

The Invasion" doesn't fail so miserably as to warrant dumping. "The Invasion" is a perfectly watchable, agreeably paranoid remake of that most paranoid of last-humans-on-Earth contagion movies, "Invasion of the Body Snatchers. ... Full Review

Premiere Magazine
Almost anything would have been a better movie than this. None of the plot particulars, which merely become more and more ridiculous as the movie progresses, much matter as the filmmakers (whoever they really are) desperately try to pump up the tension volume at every turn. ... Full Review

MovieJuice!
The original Invasion of the Body Snatchers was a subtle riff on Communist paranoia. The Invasion is atmospheric - and by "atmospheric," I mean "dull. It had better reprogram my genetic expression which, thanks to The Invasion , is a big frown. ... Full Review

Chicago Tribune
Kidman's character is a refreshing action heroine: intelligent, maternal and surprisingly good with a gun. let's just say the conclusion wraps things up too neatly and stresses points that have already been adequately covered ... Full Review
