Should have been called 'The Trainwreck'

Rating: 1/10 (3 January 2010)

A group of nervous, attractive people desperately in search of what they need...no, not the characters seeking a cure. I'm talking about the actors looking for the story. Alas, they fail.
Pity that no one in M.Night's world loves him enough to say 'Dude, it isn't working-- A wind borne toxin would infect people before they had time to slam a door. Convertible Jeeps aren't air tight, even if there are NO holes in the fabric roof. You don't grow your own lemons in New England. People just don't leave radios tied to fences. Grownups get angry when strangers slap their children.' And so a parable about nature fighting back becomes instead a feeble parody, to the point that the very valid point is lost in a sea of guffaws.
Odd though, that a native of India, which has three times the population of the US in only a third the land mass would choose bucolic New England to represent man's inhumanity to nature...
