FIRST IMPRESSIONS

Everyone knows how famous the 'Twilight' series was, so like everyone else I had my expectation of this movie. It did not disappoint me, I actually liked everything about it. I thought the theme was good but the development between characters a... read more

A parasitic alien soul is injected into the body of Melanie Stryder. Instead of carrying out her race's mission of taking over the Earth, "Wanda" (as she comes to be called) forms a bond with her host and sets out to aid other free humans.

" I really liked this one. It was more of a story development than an action-fueled sci-fi film and I liked the change of pace. Saoirse Ronan was amazing as a duel-personality. I would call this poignant because it gave me the feels."
