Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
The Host's infelicities-drab dialogue, ridiculous plotting, more emotional crises than there is story-are enlivened by its thematic eccentricities.

rotten:
The movie's structure is awkward. There's no real narrative thrust.
– James Berardinelli,

rotten:
The Host isn't very good as a romance. There's not very much passion on screen, which makes the film a poor cousin to Twilight.
