ChanBot i must have seen a different film!!

Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews

Catangro After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

Tymon Sutton The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

Knut Torgersen (knutt) From time to time I watch a movie and get a sense of "detaching" from the action on-screen. Let me explain: Normally I concentrate on the story and stay focused all the way through, even though fellow movie watchers in a theater disturb me or even when we take short breaks when watching at home to get something to eat, bathroom breaks or whatever. I get back into the story like THAT. But then - sometimes I watch this movie that make me lose concentration and think: "What the h..ll?" and the movie experience is gone."Robin Cook's Invasion" is in that category. The all over feel of the movie gave me a feeling like somebody did not use their brains when making this movie. I mean, many of the elements of the movie did not explain very well - like the date shaped rocks raining down. Why did they have to float in the air over the waste basket? Why did it insert a black goo that had to look like saliva a moment later? When did meteor rocks land on top of sand without making even a tiny dent in it? What was the purpose of the vortex of fire that brought the first stone home (as in - WHY did the first stone go home)? I had huge problems understanding why the aliens poised a threat to Earth, why the aliens wanted to alter the human race, why it was bad if the portal opened and, for that matter, why the stupid space ship blew up because Beau lost his grip on the power dial (or whatever it was).The looks of the "intelligent thingy" inside the stone. Complete with a huge brain, angry eyes and all was just too much. If I am not mistaken, they even managed to call that thingy the VIRUS. Woohoo! An intelligent virus! What exactly was their intended audience here? Children? No - they had some feeble attempts at sex scenes. I think their intended audience must have been the one with lesser IQ. Sorry, this movie did nothing for me.

Mike After seeing this movie, all that I can say is, "Scifi channel please stop making movies." They can at least stop making movies that suck so bad. Between the crappy acting and the bad, bad, bad editing of the actual story the movie needed to be burned. It gave me a headache and my eyes were burning by the end. It amazes me that there are people out there that would give this, heap of needs to be shredded film a 10 and say that they need to make more like it. UH! WHAT'S WRONG WITH PEOPLE! Wow, now that I got that out, I feel much better! Thanks for letting me rant. How in the world does IMDb expect me to write 10 lines of comment on this steaming pile of a movie.

J. E. Conde (jconde999) A virus, presumably of extraterrestrial origin, takes over human beings.By the numbers made-for-tv movie travels down well-known territory with few redeeming virtues. The familiar story is padded with mumbo jumbo galore and cheesy special effects. Even though the acting by most of the cast is decent, there is little else to be remembered.Recommended only to desperate diehards craving for their sci-fi daily shot!!! With due respect to the canine breeds, skip this dog of a movie and go for the real thing. Rent out Don Siegel's Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956), Village of the Damned and the underrated Independence Day or any of those wonderful campy sci-fi B-movies of the 50's... and treat yourself to a pleasurable Saturday afternoon and don't forget the right words: Klaatu barada nikto!Rating: 2/10.because of beautiful locations.

xorys Hokey music, cheesy special effects, a really dumb script, and heavy-handed, pedestrian direction, all drawn out to great lengths - is this a movie? No, clearly it's a TV mini-series, and a poor one at that. The only thing that might attract you to it is some meaningful acting talent, and that certainly is present. I was drawn into watching it by the presence of Kim Catrall and Rebecca Gayheart, both of whose work I've previously admired... but don't make the same mistake. Truly, it's not worth it. Give this one a miss.
