If you like gore and Aliens ripping people apart...then this is NOT the movie to see even though there is some blood shed in this one. This movie has a different way of looking at things and at the end there is a lesson to be learned. The Host will at moments make you feel on the edge of your seat, make you feel mushy inside, make you laugh, make you gasp, and make you want to cry. Is this a must-go-see in the theater?....no, not really. It will be a good watch whether in the theater or on DVD. It did lead to a funny conversation between my husband and I about if our Lhasa Apso Oreo could be in my husband's head and the conversations that would be going back and forth. See the movie and you will understand. Enjoy!
Pros great story, great actors, brings out lots of different emotions
Cons moments of being aware that it is a 2 hr movie
