How can ANY intelligent person have enjoyed this MOVIE!?!?

Rating: 6/10 (16 August 2002)

I just have to add a second review. I can't believe the rave reviews for what I think was a stupid movie. How in the world could you like this movie? ITS FULL OF FLAWS! I could list them, but just click on my username and read my other review for the details.
Anyone, who reviews this movie and thinks its a great piece of work hasn't gone past a basic knee-jerk reaction. "What a cool looking Alien. WOW! This is a great movie!" And its not even that scarey. Its not scary at all. I was FAR more frightened in the Blair Witch Project than in this piece of garbage. The movie gets worse and worse in my mind as I think about it. It was extremely irresponsible for Shyamalan to make a movie without giving any thought at all to its credibility and believability.

I am sorry to say this, but anyone who likes this movie isn't very intelligent or they don't watch very many movies and are overimpressed with some of the cheap thrills Shyamalan throws in there to "WOW" the crowd. I have had more suspense watching the Fear Factor and I find the Animaniacs to be more believable than this total waste of film.
Shyamalan has changed his film-making direction (with this movie) from "Braveheart" to "Scream". His only goal now seems to be to shock people in quick-and-dirty scenes with little or no plot at all. If you liked this movie, then you are going to LOVE the Halloween series. Stop watching dramas and start watching cheaply made slasher films like the Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
