Has anyone seen this one yet. I liked it. M. Night Shamylan is one of my favorite directors, but this movie is a little bit different than Sixth Sense of The Village, in that there isn't a surprise ending but rather it builds to a point. It's a little bit strange but all in all I liked the movie.

I like some of his stuff. 'Unbreakable' was one of the first movies that I clearly recall saying 'I hated that movie,' but I liked The Village and Sixth Sense a lot. I won't pay to see any of his movies in the theatre but I'll definitely check it out on dvd.

I thought it was great....

I have mixed feelings about his movies. I'm a sucker for horror, but when I saw it included the Big Bad Wolf - I wasn't too sure.... I'll definitely watch it on dvd

I knew when I wrote "horror" I was gonna get that.... It was for lack of a better word I guess.

His only movie that was worth a damn was The Sixth Sense.

Im sorry blm but what the hell could you have liked about The Village? That movie ranks up there in my worst movies ever list.

As for The Lady in the Water. I will have to pass. The reviews look BAD. http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/lady_in_the_water/

I thought it was interesting how these people lived w/in walls in the middle of civilization, led to believe that their way of life was the current way of life and kept there by fear. It was by no means an epic movie but I still enjoyed it.

Maybe its just the fact that the film told the audience that the "scary wolf" was a person about 30 minutes into the movie made it bad for me. I had told myself that I was going to see a scary movie and I was ready for a scary movie. I guess I dont understand why he markets his films as scary when they are not.

The Village makes you realize the fact that we are ALL products of our own environment - whatever bullshit you've been raised to believe is just that - bullshit - at least until you learn to step out of bounds and learn what life is all about on your own terms - very good movie imo...

im glad you got a life lesson from The Village but I didnt go watch that movie to get a life lesson. i went because the advertisements made it look really spooky and so on. can you imagine if he would have marketed the village as a "life lesson". about 3 people would have gone to see it. instead he pretty much makes up the whole advertisement and it turns out to be nothing like the movie. im not into that kinda shit. imagine going to the movies to see a good action movie and its really a girly love story movie..

I agree; the 1st 30mins of the movie sucked. I almost left. He does markets his movies as scary, whatever. The village sucked.

And STFU you damn wigger

The 6th sense was awesome. The rest of his movies have been pretty boring. That shit he made with the fuckin aliens was awful...

I agree. I stopped watching his films after The Village. His plots are predictable and lame.

I like shyamalan, his movies are always different. In a time when movies are all the same, he challenges and goes in wierd directions. People are always going to dislike a new thinker but I think he rocks.

Its fine to be different if your movies are good. Problem is, his movies are different and they suck at the same time..
