THE HOST (2006) - Sept. 10, 2006
A really uneven film. About a giant mutated monster terrorizing Korea, this movie had some really good moments, but was otherwise so-so. The first scene with the monster, in which it runs amuck in park full of people was CLEARLY the highlight, and was probably one of the best scenes of its type that I've ever seen. It was awesome, but it was all downhill from there. There were a few other good scenes with the monster, but none of them could come close to the first one. The movie was otherwise way overlong; the family at the centre of the film was probably too large -- the movie could have been trimmed down quite a bit if there weren't so many central characters. **1/2
