What does everyone think? I honestly haven't gotten around to seeing the last couple M. Night movies, but I think the previews for this look good. Plus I like Marky Mark as an actor.

Re: The Happening

I dont know man, the trailers for "The Village" were so wicked when I first saw 'em..... and that movie was a let down of epic proportions. And that shit.... lady in the pond or some crap..... what was the nonsense. I couldn't even see it for 17 minutes it was so retarded. Naked woman appearing in a pool and the wolf from never ending story running around.....I'm waiting till this hits Netflix.

Re: The Happening

M Knight Shamalamadingdong has been a huge let down. How they keep funding him is a wonder in its own.

Re: The Happening

i think a hit like The Sixth Sense is to hard to top ... thats his biigest peoblem ... but his films are good , maybe they dont feel as scary ... the one i trully didnt like was Lady in the Lake very very weak stuff .
Very though reviews
I think ill give him the chance and ill watch this .... we'll see

Yeah I think that's the bigger surprise than watching his movies! Dingdong is probably one of those types you either hate or love, and there must be a crazy bunch of fanatics out there who can't let go of 6th Sense and attend every new movie.

Remember reading a scathing review of the Village that observed Dingdong liked to make movies which exists in their own lil pocket universe/world, and is withdrawn from normality. Except his movies are never outright fantasies, and have weak plots that only serves to alienate Dingdong from his audiences once the veil is lifted.

Re: The Happening

wow, this was a bad movie, i mean the whole idea of the movie kind of started really good, but at one point it becomes really really bad, some bad acting, some stupid lines, i mean, damn, i had high expectations for this movie.

really disapointed.

Re: The Happening

m night is trying to get over comments like that by saying this is the best intentional B movie ever made.

thats what usually always happens to his movies.

good ideas, good starting, everything else is shit.

only movie of his that i happen to really like is Signs.

Re: The Happening

really ? I thought Signs was pretty retarded. The only good thing in the movie was the acting of Joachim Pheonix and the anti-semite.

storyline was really sad and without any real direction. just a snippet of the life of a pastor's family through an alien attack, which just saying it aloud makes it seems even more stupid. Beings flying millions of light years come to earth and start banging on doors to break in just to kill ? whatever happened to them laser cathode ray light pulse shooters?

Re: The Happening
