The more I think about this movie the less I like it...

Rating: 5/10 (20 January 2003)

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie, however upon my second viewing, I started thinking that it was a bit too much..
For example(warning, some spoilers ahead)
1.These aliens are big and look very agile. How the hell does our friend Night Shymalan wrestle this dude in the pantry. C'mon any human being would get a huge ass-whupping from these guys.
2.Why the hell would Night Shymalan or Mel Gibson not call the police upon discovery of ET'S scary cousin in the house. They have just seen an alien...wouldn't you at least call 911 or the policewoman...any normal human being would.
3.After learning that the UFO's are to be found a mile from the crop circles, any normal family would pack up and get the hell out of their farm. At least go in town where it's probably safer....even if you think it's the end of the world, I'd rather be with a bunch of people, then all alone with my brother and 2 kids in the middle of nowhere, fighting these aliens.
4.These aliens come from god knows where, have built a technology that we probably will not see here for centuries to come..... you're going to tell me that they can't figure a way to get through a basement door...c'mooooooooooon.
5. These ultra-intelligent beings have only vapors to kill us.....they haven't developed weapons.......what the hell...they build flying saucers that travel millions of miles that can render themselves invisible, but they don't have any weapons(even if it's ground war, they can use some type of weapons without provoking us to use nuclear weapons)
6. Knowing (I would assume that with their intelligence they would know that earth and every living being on it is made up of 80% water) what water does to them, you would think they would have developed some kind of protection to H2O.
I think the bottom line is I should have watched this movie once only.
