"The Earth is in danger! "- In tabloid begins the description of the" guests "and like any yellow header, blatantly lying. Planet in the most that neither is good hands. Aliens in the form of disembodied souls colonized Earth, got rid of all that it has ruined, and, unlike the people reacted to nature with care, understanding, etc. All they had to - to eliminate the last human little soul, full of destructive desires. They are something alien souls differ to some utopian kindness and love, and replaced in the human bodies.
However, not all the souls of people die after the introduction of the alien in the flesh. One exception was the yasnookaya girl Melanie (Saoirse Ronan), desperately struggling with a guest-okkupantkoy inside his own body and with alien invaders out of it with the help of the same reviews (or Wanderer, as it called them in Russian translation). Melanie forced to fight a little brother and handsome-boyfriend (Max Irons), who found refuge in the rebel camp is not yet "converted" people.
Sometimes it seems that Stephenie Meyer has been practicing voodoo or dominatrix role in role-playing games with ekranizatorami. Otherwise, it is simply impossible to explain that the directors with an impressive filmography roll in his work to outright bulvarschiny inherent in most Mayer, they filmed. Escape from the hands of incompetent (here we are, of course, quote Stephen King) except that the writer was able to Bill Condon in the last part of "Twilight", where he perekromsal ending vampire saga.
Andrew Niccol, the director of such films as "Gattaca," "The Truman Show", has incorporated its "guests" of the eponymous bestseller Mayer all the worst: senseless mush heroes, crumpled story with frank logical Progal and vague lines and, most unbearable, outrageously clumsy dialogue, with which always "Glory" writer.
Yes, my God, somebody rewrite them dialogues or disable this nudyatiny!
Well, the parallels with the "Twilight" in the "guests" emerge by themselves. Aliens are in fact the same vampire saga (which, incidentally, are not indifferent to human necks). Sojourners, as vampires, too, can be good. Ronan also the heroine is torn between two fires - in love with her men. It is also plagued by questions of reincarnation and all that. In short, Mayer as competent sewing-machine, well chosen patterns and now sews them one style of different materials, while there is demand. But how is it boring!
In general steep and large-scale conflict with the idea of utopian society wonderful aliens and not perfect and contradictory in many respects human society hopelessly burned at Niccolo Mayer in the atmosphere of interpersonal parochial squabbles. There would turn so thoroughly researched questions of universal morality and not to indulge in the usual melodramas soplezhuystva. But no, give them the fifth circle to play romantic and suppress the viewer to pity tears of childhood close-up! Although the authors are trying to get the basic idea to the global level, it looks too pathetic, far-fetched and for show. However, what is the demand, so is the proposal.
In the movie "The Guest" from March 28.
