* BrokenBase: Both audiences and critics divided on whether the movie stands on its own merit (or maybe even being an ImprovedSecondAttempt) or if it's just a soulless cash-grab on an established franchise. Famously, Roger Ebert caught a lot of flak for praising the movie higher than [[Film/InvasionOfTheBodySnatchers1956 the 50s classic version]] and [[Film/InvasionOfTheBodySnatchers1978 its 70s update]].



* SoOkayItsAverage: Maybe in spite, or maybe ''because'' of the BrokenBase nature of the film, the ultimate consensus seems to be that it's just an average flick, training to angle itself as a teen horror this time around.

Added DiffLines:

**In an audio example, because the camera lingers so long on pod people screaming, the fog from their mouth indicates the actor is just quietly standing with their mouth wide open and breathing in and out normally, despite being dubbed as letting out one long continuous scream.

Split the different works off to their own pages.

Added DiffLines:

* {{Narm}}: The pod scream quickly becomes this, especially how the camera simply lingers on the pod person with no angles or quick cuts.
