Shyamalan - A Master Storyteller

Rating: 9/10 (3 August 2002)

This is a movie, which should be watched without any prenotion or expectation of any kind.. Just sit and enjoy the course of the film and you won't be disappointed for even a single minute. From Sixth Sense to Signs, Shyamalan has joined the ranks of Spielberg, Hitchcock.. in story telling and holding the audience pulse. Mel Gibson, Joaquin Phoenix, Culkin, Breslin.. everyone turned in a superb performance. If u r a movie buff, watch his camera angles.. which will make u scary, even for otherwise routine scenes. Unlike his earlier movies, this movie has quite a few lighter moments too.. and too quirky.. His gentle use of humour, while maintaining the suspense, through out the movie was simply great. what the film is lacking is: It leaves the audience with nothing once they leave the theater.. U just think that the movie is worth while watching and thats it. But personally.. I would wait for his next venture.
