The BAD happening!

Rating: 2/10 (15 June 2008)

One more time Mr Shyamalan does a work with some potential in theory that ends being a tremendous crap in practice! Please Mr Shyamalan stop wasting Hollywood money and talent! Or on the other hand you can still writing, but please let the directing job for people who can really do it! In fact, Shyamalan writing in its essence is not bad because he can create arguments with some originality and alternative issues but, aside from movies like THE SIX SENSE or UNBREAKABLE, he just sucks as a director!
In this movie, the only good issue is the plot's main topic: the idea of the plants create a toxic substance which make people commit suicide, protecting themselves against the most aggressive race on Earth, the Human race! This background idea is the only good thing of THE HAPPENING. All the rest is just pathetic. The film is too slow paced, and almost nothing really happens, as it is totally non-suspenseful and really boring. And what about the sub-plot concerning to the main characters' affections? Quite pathetic!
One more time Mr Shyamalan does a movie with plenty scenes that can easily be spoofed in the next "SCARY MOVIE". As did happen with THE VILLAGE
