“The Invasion” a decent remake, a decent rental
Its almost been a year since “The Invasion” hit theaters (August 2007), and its one of those movies I wanted to see, but just kept putting off… for one thing, it didn’t do so well at the box office (only making $15 million with a budget of $80 million)… and it didn’t get a lot of buzz after it hit theaters… but it was also overshadowed the weekend it opened against “Superbad” and by four other movies still playing and winning at the box office “Spider-Man 3″, “Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End”, “Transformers”, and “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix”… needless to say, I finally saw it and… it was a pretty good rental.
