Maddox G. One of the best endings ever Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/21/25 Full Review Blu B All Time Classic. One of the best remakes ever made. This gets when a remake is warranted. There is more than enough changes here to justify it. This mas more production value than the original but still feels gritty and grounded. The tone here compared to the original is very much so a political thriller half the time and really does give a strong sense of paranoia and distrust of government and basic structure. It's setting is super memorable, the direction is excellent, and the special effects are really good. This shows a lot more graphic things than the 56' one does and the ultimate change is the ending which is iconic, hits hard, and stays with you long after the credits roll. The ending alone justifies it and changes everything. This has a much more bleak and hopeless feel to it the more it goes on as well. Really eerie music as well that's really good. Everything else is first rate. Overall it hits the same basic plot points of the original just with changes in the style. Thriller paranoia, more graphic which makes things more overt, the ending, and just first class execution make this something everyone should give a try once. It's very disturbing and unsettling. The only thing I can think of is the original does have a quicker pacing but this needs the slow burn to have the tone it does to work. Other than that man there so even. Whether you like your horror with a positive outlook or more gritty and real will dictate which you prefer. See both for sure regardless. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/01/25 Full Review Paul S This movie is absolutely spectacular! It is without a doubt one of the best alien invasion movies I have ever seen. Throughout the entire movie I felt the fear, and there was never a moment where I didn't feel unsettled. I definitely recommend it for thriller fans and fans of suspensful movies!

Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/30/25 Full Review Robert R Honestly came into this with slightly more muted expectations than usual, considering I'm not a big bummer endings guy and this has one of the most iconic bummer endings in cinema history. But, no, I was pleasantly surprised by this. Even with that conclusion so firmly impacted in my head, I still felt like there was a chance things would pan differently than they did. Even with that in mind, I don't regret the watch. This is pretty damn impressive considering the era of filmmaking and the budget that was in play. So many elements of filmmaking (the special/make-up effects, the sound design, the score, the production design, etc.) are doing their absolute all -- and all at the same time -- in order to make the events of this film feel truly existential, even apocalyptic. It really is scary stuff and I couldn't imagine seeing this as a kid in the 70s, man. This would've traumatized the mess out of me. Definitely a classic and one that many have tried and failed to fly close towards in the decades that followed.
