The Host

what are you all rambling about, if you can't tell others that this is not the Saoirse Ronan The Host. I feel so disappointed by you all, Moviebox this is not cool😡

First: I really enjoyed this movie. I love sci-fy and when it gets to be combined with a story of fully dynamic characters that show the heart of being what we would call human is deeper than being a homo sapien. An engaging plot riddled with surprising moments that showed me where I have room to grow in expanding my own understanding of how our differences are much less important that our similarities. Second: This is one of those movies that can best be appreciated by someone who enjoys the trailer. The movie is as advertised and from the heart. If you want to hold it to the public lens of what most people think is good then continue to read reviews written by people paid to write them for that general public. If you are less interested in an Oscar nomination and more interested in a store that speaks in your heart, then you probably shouldn't care about the TomatoMeter so much. Enjoy it if you thought you would before you looked up it's rating, you still will.

While I agree that the book was better (big fan of it!!!) I have to say the movie was really good. Saoirse Ronan's acting was amazing along with Max Iron's and Jake Abel's. The plot was good and wasn't as predictable as most science fiction movies/ books out there today. Even if you don't go see the movie at the cinemas, get it out of the movie store! You will not regret it. I do wish Ian was a lot hotter though! In the book he sounded amazing! I did wish they added some more scenes from the book though. :D I am generally not a fan of Stephanie Meyer (especially after Twilight!) but my sister told me to read the book and I'm kind of obsessed... I hope Stephanie will write more decent books. By the way, what is with the Seekers dressing in white? In the book they were wearing black... what is the point of the change?
