So, I went to see The Host because I am fond of both post-apocalyptic set ups and cheesy make outs. OMFG was this movie boring. It was so boring that at one point I started counting the light fixtures. They should have let whoever made the awesome trailer make the movie.
This said, the cheesy make outs were entertaining, I liked the design, and I can really get betraying the mother planet for someone as hot as the guy playing Ian was.
So I suppose $12 not entirely wasted, despite the shoddiest worldbuilding of all time, voice overs of unintentional hilarity, and an utterly wasted opportunity for a threesome (they could literally use “the aliens made me do it” excuse).
I might read the book actually - I enjoyed the first Twilight book in a “dumb beach read” kinda way and those voiceovers have got to be less annoying to read than to listen to.
movies,
