Absolutely incredible storyline

Rating: 10/10 (3 April 2005)

Excellent fiction with a perfect balance of reality! The breadth of human emotion and psychology in which this movie plays really makes the mind reel of possibilities. The serenity of the village and surrounding scenery adds perfectly to the foreboding feel of the storyline while excellently directed camera angles extend a natural sense of urgency during key scenes. The supporting cast is wonderful and Ms. Howard's performance is truly worthy of an Oscar nomination. I have viewed The Village several times, and the amazing attention to detail that is maintained throughout this movie will keep deep thinkers in contemplation long after the last credits roll. My hat is off to Mr. M. Night Shyamalan!
