Signs - A Great Movie in it's own Right

Rating: 10/10 (6 August 2002)

Warning Mild Spoilers!
Let me preface this comment with this statement: This is a great movie.
Having said this, I would like to bring up one negative that keeps appearing about this movie. That is, the movie is not what it appears to be in the Trailers. This statement is true and it is the ONLY real thing that is wrong with the movie. Otherwise it is a good movie to watch. In fact I urge you to forget you even saw the trailer. If you haven't seen the trailer, you have the best chance in enjoying this movie.
When you watch the movie, you quickly realize that it's not much about the Aliens, per say, but more about Mel Gibsons character (Graham Hess) coming to terms with his faith after losing it along with his wife in a truly horrible accident. In fact, I would argue that the "Signs" that are refered to in the title have nothing to do with the crop circles but more of subtle hints that Graham's faith will return.
