Rating: - Body Snatchers Review
This second remake of Invasion of Body Snatchers (the previous two being the 1956 one by Don Siegel and the 1978 one by Philip Kaufman) is not--in my opinion--as suspenseful as the other two; nevertheless, it is quite watchable and entertaining. Forest Whitaker and Christine Elise are very good in this film. The 2.35:1 widescreen DVD is enhanced and of high quality.
Rating: - Cheaply produced remake
There are a number of good remakes of The Body Snatcher, but don't waste your time with this one. It's is a very cheap production, poor special effects, completely unoriginal.
Rating: - Average Remake With Some Good Moments
This third remake falls a bit flat compared to the previous ones. The first big problem is pace, which is kind of slow in the beginning, it does recover its pace around the middle but it's kind of late. The majority of the cast give a solid performance, especially Forrest Whitaker who gives a creepy scene choosing his fate of whether to join the pod people or killing himself. Anyhow without ruining the movie it has a lot of good moments, some of them are unpredictable and scary others are just okay. ... Read More
Rating: - Despite the flaws Body Snatchers is a fun ride
Body Snatchers, was the 3rd film version of Invasion of the Body Snatchers and one has to wonder why anyone felt the need for a 3rd version? This version lacks the creepy feel and campy feel of the original and lacks the bleak tone of the 1st remake. While Body Snatchers, was pointless and doesn't really add anything new it does make for a fun time. There are some problems though and Body Snatchers isn't nearly as good as it could have been, but does provide enough fun to get over the shortcomings.

Rating: - Body Snatchers - The most plausable version yet!
This version of the Body Snatchers theme is I believe the most plausible version to-date, clearly depicting an accelerated inutero like development of the aliens, after picking the subject's nose, ears and likely any other available orifice with an array of spaghetti tentacles to suck-out the "life-force" of whomever they are attempting to replace. Plus, it better depicts what happens to the original humanoid immediately upon transition. Besides each neat-nick clone apparently ordered by the collective ... Read More
