Shyamalan at his very best

Rating: 9/10 (6 August 2002)

I watched a screening of Signs on the very first day it came out. I am absolutely stunned by the genius of Shyamalan's writing and direction.

On the outside this movie might be about extra-terrestrials and so on, but if you think about it enough you see the deeper philosophical message the movie sends out.
Life is all about small things happening in a series of events and how they have a cumulative effect on the future. Every action anyone commits has its effects at some point in the future. Every situation that anyone goes through, however small, can be the difference between life and death!
