Good film that left me kind of disappointed at the end. It has a really good performance my Joaquin Phoenix and cool shots by Shyamalan that made me remember a bit of Burton. Again, not great, but watchable.

Not Shyamalan's best, but better than Lady in the water. I would not recommend this movie to anyone as it is too slow for most people's taste. I do really like the concept though - just could have been executed better.

Yes, I know this is not a horror movie, but I was expecting so much more. If Signs was a step in the wrong direction, the village was a great leap backward. The only saving grace is the excellent performance by Bryce Dallas Howard.

Overall I liked this film, but didn't expect it to blow me away like 6th sense. The acting and cinematography was excellent and there was also good character development. Once the mystery started to unravel the movie started to get predictable and dull.

Don't Get Caught Up In Conversations

I loved this movie. It wasn't the greatest of the Shyamalan's movies, but it still had one of the greatest storylines that I believe I've seen in a long time. The only things that I didn't appreciate it in this movie was the acting (I'm not sure why William Hurt decided to take a sleeper for this one...and who hired Bryce Dallas Howard?). But the writing was superb and the storytelling techniques were incredible.

Much more than a horror movie

I loved this film completely. I don't often watch horror films, and was suprised that this turned out to be much for than a "horror movie". Beautifully made and excellently acted, this has to be one of my favourite movies, and everything comes alive with an amazing instrumental score by James Newton Horward.
