Mediocre

Decent storyline but not executed very well. Well acted and shot but ultimately kinda boring. Not terrible but forgettable effort.

Without merit

I should say that the 1978 version of INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS may well be my all-time favourite movie, so watching this was a real kick in the teeth. It's like a contemporary remake of that film made without a budget and just three or four cast members. Shot in the dark in a small town over one night, by the look of it. Teens have to work out what's going on when their friends are assimilated by the pod people. Sadly, this effort is totally dull and without merit.

Not just a rip-off, but a bad one at that

Before coming to the IMDb to write my opinion of this movie, I had a good feeling that there would already be a lot of comments that what we have here is a blatant rip-off of the classic 1956 science fiction movie "Invasion of the Body Snatchers". That's certainly true, though I would like to add that this movie also cribs a few elements from the official 1978 remake. Actually, I wouldn't have really minded this plagiarism had this production thrown in a good amount of fresh elements and some energetic direction. Unfortunately, that simply doesn't happen here. The movie feels really slow, tired, old-fashioned, and at times really dull despite a few modern elements thrown in like the Internet. Not only that, the characters slowly get stupider as the movie progresses, and the movie ends on a note that seems quite unbelievable considering only a few days have passed since things started to go wrong. The actors are likable and put in a lot of effort, but they are unworthy of the shabby script and the flat direction. This is definitely one time you should stick with the original movie, or even the 1978 remake.
