The short running time means that we never get to see the characters as full-blooded people -- a detriment in a movie meant to celebrate the individuality of humans.

Nothing really stands out here. Nothing is memorable. It does not just feature emotionless aliens on the screen; it feels like they made the movie too.

Abel Ferrara's 1994 incarnation of the body snatchers story is not the most recent. But it's the most resonant in a contemporary sense — a perfectly paranoid counterpart to its 1956 and 1978 predecessors infused with deeply unsettling reminders of loss.

...a fine adaptation of an iconic novel.

Though the look is upgraded and the tone more sinister than in previous iterations, there aren't enough new twists to warrant yet another interpretation.

The original was far better.

One almost never says that a SECOND remake is worth a dang, but this is that very rare exception to prove the rule.

Okay remake. Might have been better is screenwriter Stuart Gordon had directed.
