BOO-YAH!

Rating: 8/10 (7 August 2002)

Great pacing marked with a perfect balance of humor, suspense, and purpose accentuated by an intense musical score. I'm buying this on DVD.
But a movie is more than entertainment...it's a commentary. And this is an all too important film in light of the times we live in.

Father Hess breaks it down for us -- When 'bad things' happen, they scream at our flesh one of two options: God a) does not exist or b) must be malevolent.
SIGNS tells us though God may seem aloof, apathetic or nonexistent, He is ever present and He cares. SIGNS tells us that God is good and He is in control. SIGNS is a story about faith...about listening closely.

I thought Night used the aliens as a clever plot device to communicate an all important message to an otherwise deaf world. Our world is very intrigued by 'aliens' and entertained by the possibility of their existence...and night used our interest to feed us simple truth. And since Sept 11th, the whole world has been asking: Why do bad things happen to good people? How can a good God exist in the face of such evil? Well...SIGNS answers those questions.
There is no such thing as coincidence. Chaos cannot produce order. Everything happens for a reason and is under the providence of
one good God.
Thank you Mr. Shyamalan
Atheists will probably hate it.
