A scary as hell, laugh out loud, tearjerking, thought provoking movie.

Rating: 10/10 (6 August 2002)

The thing about Signs is that it's not JUST a scary movie. Sure, it was scary as hell, it had the audience screaming and jumping out of their seats. But there was a deep, moving story beneath it that keeps us thinking long after we've seen it. This movie is funny... but not a forced funny, just subtle humor that breaks the tension between all the really suspenseful parts. This movie is also sad, but happy-sad sometimes. At some points I wasn't sure if I was crying because it was sad or because the movie was just so GOOD. I am in awe of the genius of M. Night Shyamalan-I've been a fan of his since before The Sixth Sense. He has this talent that lets him get below the surface of his viewers. My friends and I could do nothing but discuss the movie for a long time afterwards. I'm still thinking about it, so much that I had to see it twice during its opening weekend. Good job once again, M. Night. Now I just can't wait for his next one.
