A BRILLIANT FILM

Rating: 10/10 (18 September 2002)

**SPOILERS AHEAD***
I keep reading all of these comments about Signs that say the movie is stupid, idiotic, boring, not "action packed", etc. I just have to say that the movie is exactly the opposite. I think that the movie is a great masterpiece that people from all over the world should see.
People comment on the aliens. They say that the aliens, who are much more advanced, need crop circles to find their way around, don't have weapons, and that they couldn't knock down a wooden door. I have only one thing to say to these. THIS WAS NOT THE MAIN POINT OF THE MOVIE. Plus, crop circles have been known to be related to aliens so M. Night probably put them in there to get the idea of aliens coming. Hmmmm... crop circles=signs, there are signs in the movie.... the movie's title is SIGNS. The aliens didn't bring any weapons because, as it says during the movie, they are afraid that we will us nukes and the nukes would destroy the planet. And about the doors, WHO REALLY CARES?!?!?!
The whole point of the movie wasn't an Independence Day, or an XXX action packed kind of movie. It was a thinking and a drama movie. M. Night wanted the viewer to be swayed by this movie and to look onto their own lives to see if there were problems that could be changed, not by a bad experience, but by the viewers own determination.
Over all... this movie is one of the best ever made and anyone who disagrees can try to make their own movie, writing the script, shooting the movie, and editing. Then you will see how hard it is to make the movie... I have a great admirance to M. Night because I have made my own movies and know how hard it is to get the viewer to see your point of view.
