The Host

“The Host” was one of, if not the best, “alien” type movie that I have ever seen! Most alien movies are full of slaughter and “the typical end of the world” type story lines. The Host shows that some aliens have compassion towards humans. Lots of unexpected twists and turns keeps the viewer interested until the dramatic conclusion. I highly recommend this movie for teens through adults!!

I have read this book multiple times, and I never expect the movie to fully live up to the detail achieved in the book version. However, this was much worse than I imagined it could be. For a storyline written around a main character with 2 different active streams of consciousness, there is barely any dialogue (internal or external). The writing is painfully plain, and the scenes are disconcertingly short and oddly devoid of emotion. The acting is terrible, and is further diminished by a soundtrack that could have been selected at random from a catalog of elevator music. There is zero attention to character development, and there is nothing fulfilling about making it to the end. I would not recommend watching this, even as something to have on in the background. If the storyline intrigues you, read the book - it's phenomenal.

- el inicio es un poco brusco la manera que explican todo. - historia adolescente pero el global podia estar interesante - va como muy a saco, sin mucho desarrollo - no empatizas con las decisiones de los personajes - la organizacion d elos humanos.. de donde sacan recursos y tal.. muy poco creible - tremendo personaje el baboso que se enamora de la chica del otro, la trama amorosa del baboso con la cosa pff - la idea 3a buena pero mal montada, esq va todo rapido - estos campan a sus anchas con furgonetas en un mundo plagado por los otros y como si no pasase nada

I don't get the hate for this movie.. 9/10 for sure. Better than a lot of other garbage out there.

It's a movie that can be liked by teens not grown ups. Big ups for the effort. Still a 9/10.

The reason why the host is such a fascinating movie is because the aliens and the humans and the kindness. The people have for the alien that joined forces with them.

Awful. Does not compare one bit to the book

I liked the concept and thought Ronan was great! It looked like it needed more budget and extras. At times it felt empty, like it was shot on a small set. I did think Ronan was fantastic though!

To me it's very unique. Although we already have enough alien domination movies, I really do enjoy this one

My wife likes The Host therefore I like it.
