I expected more!!

Rating: 6/10 (27 April 2003)

Yes, I expected more and I am disappointed. I`m asking how could this movie total an amount of more than 200 Mio. US$ at the theatres? Well, the plot is alright but it is not well packed as a convincing and really chilling blockbuster. During two thirds of the story nothing goes on and you wait and wait till something happens. The rest is all déjà vu. It is a low budget movie with no special effects. Okay I've got the message having hope in God but this I know since I am a little boy. I think this time the director failed completely after his last average movie "Unbreakable". Some critics I read on imbd said it seems Hitchcocks "The Birds". I don´t think so. "The Birds" is better, has more suspense and is a real edge-of-your-seat-thriller and it is still actual.
I continue to believe that director Night Shymalan has great potential of turning better thrillers than this one. If you want to watch it I highly recommend you to rent it before you buy. You will appreciate my advice.
Too overrated. Maximal 6/10.
