Okay here it is my thoughts on the up coming movie The Host. So I have to admit when I first herd about this book I had absolutely no intention to ever read it just because it was written by Stephanie Meyer, then I found out it was about aliens taking over the world, then I was interested (of course!!). Let me just start off by saying this book is so much better than the Twilight books so I know that the movie has to be at least a little better than the Twilight books because the source material is so much better. One of the biggest differences between The Host and the Twilight books is the characters not every love interest in The Host is a perfect pretty boy, all of the characters have flaws big ones too, they are not God like creatures that can do no wrong, they are real people stuck in a horrible situation. I would somewhat like to attribute this to the fact that Twilight was her first book so she was just getting started, and that is something that I think some people forget The Host was so much better than Twilight so I can only hope that she keeps writing and just keeps getting better and better because I really do think that she has some great stories to tell, and I do love a good story! I would also just like to point out that the aliens are the bad guys!! yes! none of the humans try to make out with them, it is quite refreshing.
Now about this movie I am just a little worried that the actors cast in the three main roles Saoirse Ronan, Max Irons, and Jake Able just won't be up to portraying all the inter conflicts that should be going on in this movie, it kind of looks like they just cast pretty boy actors. That being said I would love to be proven wrong, I really liked this book and I really would love this too be a great movie that would introduce a new audience of primarily young females to the syfy genre.
Tell me what you think have you read the book do you like it? what do you think of the cast? comment below lets talk about it!
