A Disappointment

Rating: 3/10 (14 June 2008)

I just left the theater and was so disappointed in this film. I am a great fan of M Night Shayamalan and was excited to see it. The first problem is that the acting is the worst I've seen in a very long time. Zooey Deschanel was just horrible. She spent most of the film giving us a "deer in the headlights" look. I get it...she was supposed to be scared. She didn't look scared, she just looked stupid. Mark Wahlberg wasn't much better. I felt like I was watching a tongue in cheek comedy. The bad acting was followed by a very lame ending The entire film was done to give us a politically correct message. Sad,thin plot...horrible acting. I've seen better "made for TV" movies! Such a waste of time!
