When bad things happen to good people

Rating: 10/10 (12 January 2005)

For the sake of the film, I think all in all it is not a traditional science fiction movie like "2001", an action Sci Fi like "Aliens", or a Hollywood Sci Fi Like "Independence day".
Hard Core Science Fiction fans have certain expectations and demands regarding their preferred genre. It would be a mistake to view this movie as science fiction when in fact it is a supernatural drama, similar to Shylaman's other work.
Traditionalists will find technical difficulties in signs, action fans may not find the movie nearly menacing enough, and Hollywood movie fans may just not "get it".
This film is a commentary on bad things happening to good people and how that affects personal beliefs and ideals.
