34: The Host (A-)

The CGI scenes throughout the Host were quite phenomenal. I was very very impressed with the first time the beast was encountered. I was also happy that the beast wasn't really the focal point of the movie.

The cover of the movie made me think I was about to embark on a journey much like Anaconda or Rodan, glad that wasn't really the case.

Not sure this really qualities as a horror movie, but it is definitely good. The story more revolves around an action/adventure plot, rather than anything horror. Still I don't advise watching it with your wife.

Bravo for the one aspect of the ending, which I won't say. Not many movies go there and I applaud the director/writer for having the balls to do it.
