The Invasion is too solidly crafted to be genuinely bad film, but it completely fails to grip as a thriller.

There's much to recommend here. But there are too many inconsistencies.

Next time the aliens come invading, they may want to pass the brains, hold the lecture.

As ridiculous as The Invasion gets, its competent acting, fast pace, and campy B-movie vibe keep you weirdly transfixed against your better judgment.

As straight-ahead, propulsive, reptilian-brain action, it "works" as often as not. But it's unworthy to stand with its predecessors.

It falls far short as an effective sci-fi thriller, not to mention the brainy political allegory it's determined to be.
August 17, 2007
Opting for car chases instead of the thought-provoking ideas of its predecessors, the film looks like the work of, if not pod people, folks who gave up any kind of passion for the material long before the cameras started to roll.

Even with its flaws The Invasion is still eerie, provocative and a solid showcase for Kidman.

Nicole Kidman's character struggles to stay awake -- as will the audience.
July 06, 2010
There are some nice shocks to be had, but not enough to stop viewers from falling asleep, which is ironic considering that staying awake is an essential plot point for Kidman's character.

The latest and lamest version of Invasion of the Body Snatchers might have been an accidental camp classic if its politics weren't so abhorrent and the movie didn't try to hide its ineptitude behind a veil of pomposity.
