“I’ll get you and your little dog too”.

The Space Shuttle returns with a virus that takes over people when they sleep. Sound familiar? Yep, it is the second “popular” remake of the 1950’s “Invasion of the Body Snatchers." It is based on the book “The Body Snatchers” by Jack Finney. With the exception that it is more up-to-date with the technology, they have brought back the old-time suspense build-up as opposed to just gore. It is almost flawless except for the cell phones. The first thing aliens would take over unless we are already subjects of automation invasion. Oh no, that is a different movie. The production is a vehicle for lots of old popular actors as cameos in this film. However, the main actors, including Nicole Kidman, are still good at their craft. Music by John Ottman so permeated the movie that we do not get any downtime to think. Visual effects supervisor Boyd Shermis shows the only bad CGI scene of a helicopter; other than that, they do not let the graphics overwhelm the story as is the tendency today. See this happen in real time: “Shatner in Space” (2021); this is not the easiest to obtain. -------------------------------------------------------------------- For those interested in Blu-ray, it neither adds nor subtracts from the film. Oh yes, and lots of DVD extras, including an ad for the latest Warner Blu-ray.
