Night misunderstood

Rating: 6/10 (18 July 2006)

I get aggravated at people who automatically bash Night's movies. Granted, Signs wasn't his BEST work but it was good. One thing I love about Night that you can ALWAYS count on with him is that he puts so much thought into his films. Your never gonna sit down to a Night movie and predict everything that will happen after the first 10 minutes. He will always keep you guessing and you will NEVER guess right. I give complete props to a writer/director who is not afraid to do something different.
I didn't catch on to him until after I saw the Sixth Sense, then I went back and watched Unbreakable. I loved them both. Later when The Village came out I was surprised by how much bashing it took. I loved it. I love it because it was original and it made you think. Signs does the same thing. It's not just a alien movie. It has a huge story other then the aliens. You are brought into the lives of the father and his family and you understand them and why they feel they way they do. As always Nights movies stay with you long after you first see them!!
