An effective and scary piece of work!

Rating: 10/10 (21 March 2003)

This is one of the best movies of all-time! What you don't understand about this movie is that this movie is not about aliens! It is about faith! For example... Merill Hess always thought it was wrong not to swing that bat and Bo was able to see things into the future like her mother and Morgan had asthma. At the end they all connect! Merill's purpose was to swing that bat so he could kill the alien! Bo had dreamt all this and Morgan was supposed to have asthma so he wouldn't breathe the poison! Graham's faith was being tested so at the end of the movie he saw everything. His wife dying was meant to be! That is what the signs where, not he crop circles! The alien part was just to move the story along. M. Night Shyamalan is a great storyteller! This is not a bad script, no bad acting, and also who cares about the special effects! They didn't look that bad! This movie has chills, laughter, and emotion! GREAT FILMMAKING!
