Average Mystery Thriller

Rating: 5/10 (28 May 2006)

Well, I'm happy that I didn't pay any cent for this one because I had the occasion to watch it by friends on DVD. I am disappointed that I waited more than 30 minutes until something happens but even then I was asking myself if I should continue to watch or stop it. Sometimes I had the impression to see THE SIGNS with the same sceneries. I have to admit that the director and the same writer had a good idea sending a clear message to the audience. I am surprised how his movies continues to top the 100 Mio. US$ at the US Box Office. In this case I prefer therefore THE PASSION OF THE Christ that contains more emotional elements with a more beautiful scenery. After the disappointing UNBREAKABLE, THE SIGNS and THE VILLAGE the director should finally create better movies such as his best one called THE SIXTH SENSE. His last works seemed to be tired and he should now stop to write and in the same time to produce his own projects. For all these reasons I give 5/10. Definitely not a must see.
