Fantastic!

Rating: 1/10 (20 June 2008)

I watched with fear as the trees and plants implausibly summoned up a gale force wind, released their suicidal pheromones and then caused masses of people to over act with Oscar winning style.
Then there's the scene with an old lady smashing her head through windows, and I was seriously wondering if I was watching the same film Shamylan had seen.
We must commend M Knight Shamylan for his green efforts though.. Recycling the Children's party scene in Signs and creating a bemusing video watched on an iPhone which luckily I had managed to miss due to my Chronic Fatigue Syndrome induced by crap movies.
Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of Shamylans movies. I love Signs, Unbreakable etc. This was his big chance after 'Lady in the Water' (which cost $140 Million, and brought in a huge profit of -$74 million..yes MINUS..) He needed this to claw back his fanbase, but with this film he might as well have turned on his lawn-mower and lay down in front of it. I think this will be the end of him.
There was such a build up to this film, and I feel betrayed, stabbed in the back!
He was right though, Shamylan promised that I'd be walking out of the cinema shaking Alas, I was..
my head.
