I watched this half hour deal on FOX movies channel, and this looks like it could be his best. It's the first one that is R rated. It looks creepy as . People just killing themselves with no compunctions, right in front of the characters, right in front of kids. There was another scene where they were driving down this street, and there were abandoned cars with doors open, motorcycles laid down, bikes dropped. The camera pans up, and there are people hanging from every light pole.
I read the spoilers. Let's just say that this movie is lame as .
And I thank you for not posting them...
I liked the "monster" from Signs better in his first role as "The Grinch".
That's what killed that movie. I was really enjoying it before the alien showed up and you weren't sure whether or not there was really an invasion, or everyone was just crazy.
Best movie this guy directed was the Sixth Sense.
Unbreakable
You must have been stoned.
Not at all, actually.
I meant of course it was an invasion.
I'm just a tad defensive of the movie. I for once saw a sci fi movie that was not over done that had great acting in it. Ignore me.
Could this be the inaugural use of the word "compunction" on a message board?
So far it's gotten a rousing 21% approval rate at Rotten Tomatoes.
Some of my favorite quips-
You feel like you're not watching the end of the world but the end of a career.
It's downright stupid.
bad in more than just an everyday, sure-does-suck kind of way.
The film becomes less comprehensible as it goes along, and the audience -- expecting a patented M. Night ending -- is left with no answers, explanation, or narrative closure.
The Happening quickly deteriorates into the worst movie of M. Night Shyamalan's career... and that's saying something.
The movie is so inept in terms of coherent, cohesive storytelling and in some other filmmaking aspects that it deserves to be laughed off the screen.
Bad and weird.
The true disaster on display in The Happening is Shyamalan's career hitting rock bottom.
This movie is getting RIIPPPPPED from the critics.
I've read that Wahlberg contributes quite a bit to the suckage. Still it may be worth it just to see Zoey Deschanel on a giant screen. That might be worth 7 bucks right? Eh, maybe not now that I consider the fact that my 7 bucks would just encourage Shyamalan to make more movies like this.
I can't wait to see what everyone thinks when they either see the movie or read the spoilers. The explanation for why everyone goes crazy is just laugh-out-loud bad. Maybe the worst idea for a movie ever.
I think I'll still go only because its summer and there's nothing else to freaking do. I think all of this is killing time till Batman comes out.
That's unfortunate, if true. I usually really like Mark Whalberg.
I've read the spoilers and I agree.
Shamalamadingdong has a way of reversing the whip on ya. I like the twists of sixth sense and unbreakable. Lets hope he regains his form.
man, i had to check the spoiler on this and all i can say is wow. i'm glad i didn't waste my mom. i'd rather buy 2 gallons of gas. this is only part of the review i read that is something nobody wants to hear about their work
"Picture “The Birds” without any birds, and that should give you a good idea of what Shyamalan seems to be going for."
ouch
I read the spoiler and some reviews.
Now I just have to see it. It sounds bad enough to be amusing.
Easjer and I saw it today. I didn't think it was quite as bad as everyone is saying, though I certainly can't say I'd recommend it. Mark Walhberg was ing awful in it. And when the guy in every scene is ing awful in every scene it takes a lot away from the film. I swear, I expected him to literally say, "OH NOES!" at some point.
It wasn't a terrible premise, but certainly lacked in execution and relied on gimmicks and gore in spots, something that I think Shyamalan's other films managed to steer clear of.
it wasn't bad but wasn't good either just average
