M. Night Shyamalan spotted at the welfare centre......

Rating: 2/10 (14 June 2008)

.....Well maybe not but he should.
He has officially become a has been in the film industry, so he should get a welfare check and spend all day eating Cheesy Puffs and watching soap operas.
Where to start with this dross. We have been teased for months with trailers hinting at an incredibly creepy film where people are dying/killing themselves because of some unknown disease or force, but guess what, the trailers are the best part of the whole film. OK thats being a bit unfair, the first 10 minutes is pretty cool but after that its total crap. Mark Wahlberg? puleaaaase he is awful as our leading man, and as for Zoe Deschanel, if they had auditions for her part she must have been the only person that showed up.
I am trying to say something nice about this film because I started out hoping Shyamalan would be back to his best, I loved "The sixth sense", and although it was widely thrashed I really enjoyed "Signs", this film isn't as bad as Lady in the water, but its on par with the craptastic The village. If you do go and see it watch the first 15 minutes, then go off and play pool or something and head back in to get the last 10 minutes, the rest is utter garbage.
