Where is the director of The Sixht Sense?

Rating: 5/10 (12 July 2008)

Someone said that hit the first time and you will hit twice, and in most cases, this is one hundred percent true, but in the case of M. Night Shyamalan something happened along the way and the result wasn't what generally would give this equation. After "The Sixth sense" I expected from him only masterpieces but it wasn't, well "Unbreakable" is more or lees good, I can even say that I liked, like his next movie "Signs" but I must admit that during these three films not only the quality was lost in some directing aspects, also the scripts became increasingly incomprehensible, with several plot holes, his moral questionings becoming less solid and its " screw turns" very forced, giving by result mediocre endings. If we didn't want to believe this with these first three examples "The Village" and "Lady in the Water" completely sealed the belief that we had.
For "The Happening" everything seemed to be changing. From an ad campaign that showed little or nothing about the story until a trailer that only anticipated an apocalypse film, the assumptions began to run and we thought that Shyamalan was returning; the star director-screenwriter of "The Sixth sense" is back. But it didn't. I can summarize what I think of this movie in two words: Great disappointment. Why?
Because even though the premise of nature vs. man was interesting and the beginning of the tape, with that single number of suicides, that impacts any, like the story line advancing becomes more predictable, unbelievable and culminate with a very bad ending, so messianic, the couple protagonist survive through a coincidence of fate (where love also has something to do). Because the moral conflict that facing the players is irrelevant, the woman who refuses to mature and the men that can't understand the needs of his wife, in some point of the movie it disappears like a breath of air. Because the performances are appalling, one of the worst Wahlberg roles, you don't believe him absolutely nothing because the majority of his lines are stupid and lacking in naturalness, and neither Zooey Deschanel do a good work, in fact, Does anyone believe her character?. And because, Does anyone remember the end of "28 weeks later"? Yes, France too.
To summarize, the movie isn't good because it is not what is expected of someone that made a great film the first time. OK, I must admit, it was beginner lucky.
