Rating: Null/10 (31 July 2004)

"The Village" was AWESOME. Saw it opening day (yesterday night) and I was blown away by Shyamalan's work. As the movie went on, I did notice some hints (when one of the elders referred to apartment buildings, and when the main elder guy was talking about being a history teacher). Part of me was like, wait, this sounds too modern haha. But I didn't put the pieces together of course, so it was great. That was a nice effect when Shyamalan was reading the paper in the Reserve office (for those who didn't realize it, you can see Shyamalan's reflection on the glass door of the medicine case), and the paper was dated July 30, 2004-the movie's release date. Genius. I can't wait to see it again.
