This movie was good... but there were a few things I didn't like. For one, I'm not a religious person. I know that a lot of folks get annoyed with people like that, but it's just my choice. Now, I think the media is more open to different beliefs nowadays than about 20 years ago, which is good, but I felt a strong - I dunno, "God" vibe at the end of this film. It was as if they were saying 'if you believe in God the aliens can't hurt you' or something along those lines. The second thing is the fact that they showed the actual alien. It was scarier to me not knowing what was there or what it looked like. And the computer animation was good, but not convincing enough. Some good points of the film were the suspense and the little funny things thrown in. Anyway, I don't think this is M. Night Shamylan's best movie, but it is a lot better than some I've seen.
