The Invasion

Synopsis:

The mysterious crash of the space shuttle leads to the terrifying discovery that there is something alien within the wreckage. Those who come in contact with it are changing in ominous and inexplicable ways. Soon Washington, DC psychiatrist Carol Bennell (Nicole Kidman) and her friend, Dr. Ben Driscoll (Daniel Craig), learn the shocking truth about the growing extraterrestrial epidemic: it attacks its victims while they sleep, leaving them physically unchanged but strangely unfeeling and inhuman. As the infection spreads, more and more people are altered and it becomes impossible to know who can be trusted. Now Carol's only hope is to stay awake long enough to find her young son, who may hold the key to stopping the devastating invasion.

Robert's Review

"The Invasion" is the latest body-snatchers type of movie with Nicole Kidman and Daniel Craig at the helm. We've all seen these types of movies many times before and this one didn't really do anything to revamp or improve upon the genre, so it's basically just another scene-it-before type of movie… the kind you'd watch on cable when there's nothing else on. I wouldn't recommend waiting your hard earned $$$ at the theater on this one. Wait for DVD if you must see it. I personally didn't enjoy this movie… it was predictable, uninventive, and the action scenes were infused with unnecessary camera motion to fake or blur the real action (or lack thereof). I really can't stand it when action movies do that… camera motion has a use, but it MUST be used properly or else it just becomes annoying. Overall, spend your hard earned money on something else and don't waste your time with "The Invasion."

All in all, I'd give this movie 1.5 Body Snatchers (out of 5). Re-watch value: NONE

Brett's Review

Agggh, yes another remake of a really good classic movie and Hollywood butchered it! The idea of remaking "Invasion of the body snatchers" and setting it to a modern day element, while interesting could have been done so much better. I really didn't want to see the movie to begin with, and after it started I was positive that the movie would be absolutely worthless. Nicole Kidman and Daniel Craig did an admirable job they still were not strong enough to carry the movie and with it already having a weak story line it was a disaster waiting to happen, much like the shuttle crash at the beginning of the movie.

Overall Rating: 1 Crashing Shuttle (Out of 5). Re-Watch Value: None (I will not purchase DVD.)

Trivia: (1) While filming in Baltimore, Daniel Craig got the call from 'Barbara Broccoli (I)' informing him he won the role of James Bond. He had to take a short period off shooting to fly back to London for the Casino Royale (2006) press release. (2) Nicole Kidman was involved in an accident while riding with others in a picture car mounted on trailer being towed by a camera truck rig. While filming a stunt in downtown Los Angeles, the truck took a turn too wide, slid on wet pavement, and collided with a light standard. Several stunt artists on the picture car were injured in the accident. Ms. Kidman was brought to the hospital as a precaution, but was able to return to the set the next day.
