Not as much happening in this as you would expect

Rating: 8/10 (13 June 2008)

The Happening was a very weird and suspenseful movie. It had a very weird vibe to it the whole movie through. It kept you on the edge of your seat for the most part. I think you will really feel bad for the characters and what they are going through. It kind of was sad at some parts. Half of the story was the love story between Mark Whalberg and his wife Zoey Deshanel. They pretty much were always fighting and couldn't get along. Some scenes were not meant to be funny and just made you laugh at times. It wasn't intentionally meant to be funny and it kind of was. For the most part though this movie will have you saying wow and think to yourself what if this was really happening. The same stuff was just pretty much happening over and over again. Their wasn't as much happening as you would think from the trailer though. Their weren't a whole lot of scenes that make you jump. The messages were very good and I think were a main part of this movie. The acting wasn't amazing but not bad it was pretty god. Mark Whalberg has played better roles but did a good job. Zoey Deshanel didn't do such a good job. I think they could have had someone else play her role. Overall though this was a very suspenseful movie and pretty fun. Go see it if you want a movie that will have you saying wow after it.
