Critic Reviews of "The Host (2006)"
Globe and MailApril 01, 2007As ebullient and bizarre as a monster that can do back flips, leaving the viewer in a shock of delight.
Chicago Sun-TimesApril 01, 2007A horror thriller, a political satire, a dysfunctional family comedy, and a touching melodrama, Bong Joon-ho's The Host is also one helluva monster movie.
Toronto StarMarch 30, 2007Bravely shifting tones from the horrific to the slapstick and back again, Bong Joon-ho has made a movie that's comprised almost equally of family sitcom, political indictment, high-urban paranoia and maximum-geek, monster-movie delight.
Miami HeraldMarch 23, 2007Rarely plays out the way you expect. Director Bong is careful to deliver the promised scares, but he is also willing to overlook plot formulas to explore his own interests.
Detroit NewsMarch 23, 2007Maybe this is actually a treatise on the dissonance between East and West, science and nature, promise and tragedy. Nah. It's just a dumb, crappy horror movie that wants to be celebrated as such.
Detroit Free PressMarch 23, 2007The film's limber and inventive director Joon-ho Bong keeps The Host creeping and leaping for its entire two hours, which are filled with incident after incident, alternately terrifying, ridiculous, suspenseful and wry.
Empire Magazine AustralasiaNovember 16, 2012Joon-ho Bong's The Host is a very different kettle of mutated fish.
Suite101.comSeptember 24, 2010A livid bureaucratic satire, berserk creature feature and surprisingly somber drama, "The Host" is a convulsive, wild ride - simultaneously eliciting squirms and giggles by mashing up finger-pointing anger with "The Thing's" wiseass wickedness.
Ozus' World Movie ReviewsAugust 10, 2010A pleasant reminder of the pleasures in the low-budget quickly made monster B-film of the 1950s.
ESplatterJuly 14, 2008This monster movie from the Republic of Korea is one of the best films of its kind.
Metromix.comJune 24, 2008Minor flaws in a film destined to be embraced by genre fans worldwide.
