A convert

Rating: 10/10 (14 June 2009)

I have never been a thriller movie advocate. When I saw the trailer for this film, I thought: please it is so easy to see, immediately thinking that this was signs all over again, never going to see the film in the movie theater. I am ashamed of myself.
Some would have you think it is interesting not to show the creature because it makes the film more thriller driven, I think of such movies as Alien, but this isn't Alien. The creature needs explanation, and is a pivotal piece of the plot. This is more of a mystery, rather than a thriller. A good mystery summarizes. A writer, knows that many modern people will not look for the answers. A film is no different. Had the answers not been delivered there would be no purpose to this work. It reminds me of having very child-like story aspects, magical aspects, that I appreciate. It is Walden on a larger scale, and still leaves philosophies to be pondered by the viewer, which are all aspects of a very good film and story.
If you have missed this title, I feel sad for you.
