Film Description

This slick sci-fi horror hybrid is the fourth adaptation of Jack Finney’s The Body Snatchers, and is here infused with modern details like text messaging and 24-hour cable news, updating the classic story for today’s world.

After the space shuttle Patriot crashes unexpectedly, people across America begin to exhibit strange behaviour. Psychiatrist Carol Bennell (Nicole Kidman) begins to notice the change in those around her. Joined by her friend Ben Driscoll (Daniel Craig), she attempts to unravel the mystery as she rescues her young son.

Kidman gets the chance to act the part of an action hero (albeit a Hitchcockian blonde one), running in heels, crashing cars, and shooting guns. Clad in steely grays, she perfectly matches the film’s sober palette of neutrals, as she tries to out the aliens - who look just like everyone else.
