Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978) – 4/4

It’s really pretty great. Thrilling, mysterious, carried by likable and compelling characters played by great actors, and I’ll just say that the twist at the end is wonderfully crafted.

(I’ve decided to adopt Ebert’s 4 star scale, because I’ve always taken a liking to it, and I started to realize how dumb it is to use letter grades.)

Yeah, letters are so much dumber than stars.

The letter grading system is based on a percentage system that doesn’t make sense when used outside of school grade context.

That makes even less sense. A four star system is just a percentage system with less detail.
