While returning to Earth, the space-bus explodes and the fragments
bring an alien virus that recodes the human DNA. In Washington, the
psychiatrist Carol Bennell (Nicole Kidman) observes the modification of
the behavior of one of her clients first, then in her former husband
and finally in the population in general. Together with her friend Dr.
Ben Driscoll (Daniel Craig) and the researcher Dr. Stephen Galeano
(Jeffrey Wright), they discover that the extraterrestrial epidemic
affects human beings while sleeping and that her son Ollie, who had
smallpox with Acute Disseminated Encephalomyelitis (ADEM) when he was a
baby, is immune to the disease and may save mankind from the outbreak.

Don Siegel's "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" is one of the best sci-fi
ever, therefore most of the remakes are good because the story of earth
being invaded through replicas of the human beings is excellent. "The
Invasion" is maybe the third remake of the classic that I have watched
and I liked it in spite of having an optimistic and corny conclusion. I
do not dare to compare the classic movie of Don Siegel with this
remake, but I have found it very reasonable and entertaining. My vote
is seven.

Title (Brazil): "Invasores" ("Invaders")
