Good film - but if you know the end it ain't so good...

Seriously, I applaud Night for making such a movie. I went with some friends and one of us knew the ending ahead of time - he did not like the film. I started thinking of the guts it takes to make a movie that TOTALLY hinges on the twist near or at the end. I believe that is the reason that alot of people will not like it. If you know the end of the movie, it ruins it. However, I did not know the end, and I really enjoyed it. I figured out the twists right before there were revealed, and I now realize (for myself personally) that I don't mind being able to figure out the twists of a movie. I really loved Night's movie "Signs", and interestingly enough, there really wasn't a twist. I mean, from the beginning of the movie, it looks like the visitors are aliens, and that's what they ended up being. However, in "Sixth Sense" there was a twist, and it was brilliant. I am looking forward to Night's next movie, and I don't care if he decides to put a twist in it or not. He has proven to me that he can make a movie with or without a twist. Pretty cool. 7/10
