I cannot tolerate digital mega-special effects anymore, it annoys and repulses me. The power of M. Night Shyamalan's movies are that they are subdued and intropective, yet amazingly creative.
I think I expected a scary movie...like signs or sixth sense. We went on my wedding anniversary and had dinner at a Mexican Restaurant. We had saved for the occasion as we are on a tight budget. My husband and I love horror movies. They don't make many lately so we were looing forward to this movie. The movie makes you think, but it is not a horror flick. I expected a different kind of movie and was prepared for it. I wanted fun, entertainment, a few chills, but it's not that kind of movie. It is not a bad movie. Some of the acting was superb. If I had been in a different frame of mind, I would have liked it more.
My wife, son and i thought it was a thought-provoking film. Felt like a Robert Frost poem. Can't wait for Shyamalan's next movie.
