The Host

This movie had a lot of potential. The trailer was great and the movie had a decent storyline. It's too bad that the acting ruined it. Especially the actress who played Verra, she was just bad. Whoever casted her ruined the movie. Should of picked a stronger actress, possibly could of saved the film.

The Host, what I always wrong with this film is the name. The name "The Host" always makes me think of that film having the name written by Stephenie Meyer (novel). So, before I watch this film and before I read the plot, I thought this film is a remake of that film or something like that. But I was completely wrong. It's not a remake and the plot is a total different one.

The film started with a boring beginning. I was feeling very bored and sleepy when the film started. Even some minutes passed, it's not getting to the main point. So, I even thought of stop watching. But when I was about to stop, the main part came up and caught my attention. It was kind of interesting, so, I kept watching instead.

Throughout the film, I was feeling something's off. But I didn't know what it was. After the film finished and I ate my dinner. When I was washing my hands after my dinner, something hit me. What wrong with this film was the performances of actors and actresses. The acting of actors and actresses in this film is kind of not that good compared to the other films. Furthermore, the film gives me some feeling of it's made with a very low budget. So, yeah, the film is quite low in quality compared to the other famous films.

In conclusion, The Host is currently a normal film. The plot is kind of mysterious, and also, it's a bit disgusting at the same time. I'm glad that I didn't watch this film when I was eating. If I was, well, I might throw up if I see that particular scene. Anyway, it would be better if they could improve the acting and make it less boring somehow. Right now, it's kind of watchable, but for one time watch only.

This film starts with an interesting premise but quickly spirals toward the absurd when two unrelated story lines intersect, at a place where the viewer should just stop watching.

If the intent of the film was to have a plotless outcome - it's succeeded, and as improbable as the story-line is, it is somewhat plausible. The characters are underdeveloped and lack history or purpose, almost like being stuck in an airport and people watching.

A good idea badly executed.

This film looks good with London and Amsterdam locations, has some good performances, but is seriously let down by a fragmented and disjointed story. What starts as a thriller turns into a horror film about half way through, it's like watching two separate movies in the one.

This film had potential, all the film-makers needed to do was keep the plot consistent. The whole experience is ultimately unrewarding and disappointing. Perhaps they were trying to make it quirky, but it just comes across as silly.

This film is best avoided.

Average: Steal cash, gamble it, then take offer, go wrong home and be cut ! Story plot is initially interested, but later it turns into typical slaughter house. Thus a good story goes vanished. A bank clerk stolen customers' cash and gambles it but loose all suddenly. One mysterious man offer him to pay his debt on condition that he go to Amsterdam and exchange the briefcase. But after reaching Amsterdam things to go wrong there and situation turns into slaughter movie. A woman is a man slaughterer. She is so clever that no one could stop her or resist her. Wow! We need super hero here.
