Though it's not Shyamalan's best, It is still a good movie

Rating: 8/10 (21 June 2008)

OK, the Sixth Sense, Signs, and the village are all great movies. This movie is still a good movie, just not as good as his other's.
First lets get the reasons why this movie isn't perfect out of the way. First of all the acting wasn't the strongest it could have been. There was a bit of goofy dialog here and there but it wasn't terrible. The whole back story between the main characters was kind of useless. Also there were a couple very gory things that happened (only once or twice) kind of ruining the moment of being scared. OK, got the bad stuff out of the way, lets move on.
What made the movie good was the fact that no one knew what was happening, and know one knew were it was. Many scenes were creative and done well to make it scarier.You could tell by the expression on some of the peoples faces that something is going completely wrong. All of this made the movie very frightening. There were also some good humor here and there to keep the movie flowing.
Overall I believe, though it's not Syamalan's best movie, I would still recommend to people who want to be scared.
