The same as the book! You can see my book review also, if you take a look at my product reviews. I'll copy and paste the summary of the book here also.

SPOILER ALERT
Note: I'm not great at writing these summary things!

The Earth has been taken over by aliens known as "Souls". Most humans fade away after they've had a soul put in them, but Melanie Stryder is different. She bonds with the soul that is possessing her and persuades it to take her back to her family. There, she is rejected by most humans at first, but they eventually grow to love her. Melanie loves her boyfriend, Jared, but the soul, known as Wanderer, loves a different human, Ian. With the help of the rest of the humans, Melanie gets her body back and Wanda gets a whole new body, so Melanie can be with Jared and Ian with Wanderer.

Chilling out for a few hours with a good movie

How similar it was to the book. There was very little left out and the descriptions form the book were reasonably well kept.

By the end, I was pretty happy. Everything works out so well and it was just one of those moments where you had to grin. If you don't like happy endings, you're not going to like this one.

Well, Jake Abel is perfect. All of the cast suited their roles and Saoirse Ronan did particularly well.
