Too Good For Alien Enthusiasts

Rating: 9/10 (13 January 2003)

This film wasn't meant for the segment of movie-goers who want Alien war battles and special effects that are dazzling to the eye. It is made for sensitive people who love to think during a movie and be given good, juicy characters who are dealing with heavy stuff in their lives. I get tired of hearing people bitch about this film not having enough special effects or the story was too boring for them. Those individuals should never see a Shyamalan film because he's too good a director for them. They don't want to think or have to do any work while watching a movie. I rate "Signs" an easy 8 out of 10. The actors have a blast with the script and I had fun being teased by the story and it's twists throughout. Shyamalan is one of our truly great young directors.
