Shyamalan needs to stop!

Rating: 1/10 (10 November 2008)

M. Night Shyamalan needs to stop. NOW! Every movie he makes is worse than the previous one. "The Sixth Sense" was classic and is in my, and many movie lover's, top twenty. "Unbreakable" was good, not as good, but entertaining and interesting and with a good surprise at the end. "Signs" was OK, at best. "The Village" was overlong and incredibly boring and I had the ending figured out after fifteen minutes. "Lady In The Water" was so bad that I never finished watching it, and wanted the hour of my life back that I had wasted.
"The Happening" is actually worse, if only because I was forced to watch the entire thing. The premise was interesting, plants are getting even with the humans that are destroying the planet, but the script, the acting, the direction, and the characters are so bad that I rooted for the plants. This film was not worth the dollar I paid to rent it!
